Test your hosted checkout integration (macOS/Linux)

You can test the hosted checkout experience without much code. Use the following steps to test a checkout session using basic tools, such as, cURL and a web browser.

1. Copy the following cURL command:

curl --location --request POST 'https://sandbox.dev.clover.com/invoicingcheckoutservice/v1/checkouts' \
--header 'X-Clover-Merchant-Id: {merchantId}' \
--header 'Authorization: Bearer {privateKey}' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data-raw '{
  "customer" : {
    "email": "[email protected]",
    "firstName" : "Example",
    "lastName": "Customer",
    "phoneNumber": "223-555-0002"
  },
  "shoppingCart" : {
    "lineItems": [
      {
        "name": "Apple",
        "unitQty": 1,
        "price": 100
      },
      {
        "name": "Orange",
        "unitQty": 2,
        "price": 75
      }
    ]
  }
 }'

2. In a text editor, paste the command and then replace the following placeholders:
