Kentico & AuthorizeNet: Technical Integration Deep Dive

Our iPaaS solution facilitates a robust, secure, and scalable integration between Kentico and AuthorizeNet, leveraging API-first principles and event-driven architecture. This section outlines the technical underpinnings and key components of this powerful connection.

Data Flow Steps

Connection Setup: Establish secure API connections to both Kentico and AuthorizeNet within the iPaaS, configuring authentication credentials (OAuth 2.0 for Kentico, API Login ID/Transaction Key for AuthorizeNet) securely in a credential vault.

Event Listener Configuration: Set up Kentico webhooks (e.g., for new orders, customer updates) to push real-time data to the iPaaS. Configure iPaaS to listen for AuthorizeNet webhooks (e.g., transaction status, fraud events).

Data Mapping & Transformation: Design visual data maps within the iPaaS to translate entities like Kentico `Order` and `Customer` into AuthorizeNet `Transaction` and `CustomerProfile` payloads, handling data types, formats, and business rules.

Workflow Orchestration: Build low-code integration flows that define the sequence of actions: Kentico event -> iPaaS transformation -> AuthorizeNet API call -> AuthorizeNet webhook -> iPaaS transformation -> Kentico/ERP API call.

Error Handling & Retries: Implement intelligent retry logic with exponential backoff for transient API errors. Configure dead-letter queues and alerting for persistent failures.

Deployment & Monitoring: Deploy integration flows from Dev/QA to Production environments using CI/CD pipelines. Monitor performance, API usage, and error logs via centralized dashboards.

Security & Compliance: Ensure all data in transit is encrypted (HTTPS/TLS). Leverage AuthorizeNet CIM for tokenization to minimize PCI DSS scope. Validate webhook signatures.

Data Mapping

Key Entities & Data Mapping for AuthorizeNet-Kentico Integration

Understanding how core entities map between Kentico and AuthorizeNet is crucial for a successful integration. Our iPaaS provides visual tools to define these mappings, ensuring data consistency and integrity.

Order / Transaction

The central entity for eCommerce, representing a customer's purchase in Kentico and the associated payment event in AuthorizeNet.

AuthorizeNet Fields

transactionId (AuthorizeNet) amount transactionStatus responseCode authCode submitTimeUTC invoiceNumber customerIp

Kentico Fields

OrderID (Kentico) OrderDate OrderStatus CustomerGUID BillingAddress ShippingAddress TotalPrice CurrencyCode

Mapping Notes

Kentico's `OrderID` is typically mapped to AuthorizeNet's `invoiceNumber` or a custom `orderId` field for traceability. `TotalPrice` maps directly to `amount`. Kentico's `OrderStatus` needs robust transformation logic to map to AuthorizeNet's `transactionStatus` (e.g., 'Pending' -> 'Authorized', 'Processing' -> 'Captured').

Technical Documentation

API Endpoints & Data Logic

Technical details for developers and architects.

Method Endpoint Purpose
POST createTransaction Process new payments (authorization, capture, sale, refund, void) for Kentico orders.
POST createCustomerProfile Securely store customer payment and shipping profiles in CIM, linked to Kentico customers.
POST createSubscription Establish recurring billing subscriptions in ARB based on Kentico product/customer data.
POST getTransactionListForBatch Retrieve transactions for a specific settlement batch, vital for financial reconciliation.
POST getUnsettledTransactionList Fetch authorized but unsettled transactions for real-time order adjustments in Kentico.

⚡ Transformation Logic

  • Map Kentico `OrderStatus` (e.g., 'New', 'Paid', 'Refunded') to AuthorizeNet `transactionStatus` (e.g., 'approved', 'declined', 'refunded') and vice-versa.
  • Convert Kentico `TotalPrice` to AuthorizeNet `amount`, handling any currency differences.
  • Extract customer `FirstName`, `LastName`, `Email` from Kentico `Customer` entity for AuthorizeNet `CustomerProfile` creation.
  • Generate a unique `invoiceNumber` for AuthorizeNet from Kentico `OrderID`.
  • Aggregate AuthorizeNet `SettlementBatch` data (sales, refunds, fees) for posting to specific GL accounts in ERP.

🛡️ Error Handling

  • Payment Decline: AuthorizeNet declines a payment (e.g., insufficient funds). iPaaS updates Kentico `OrderStatus` to 'Payment Declined' and triggers customer notification or dunning workflow.
  • API Rate Limit Exceeded: Kentico or AuthorizeNet returns a 429 error. iPaaS retries with exponential backoff.
  • Data Mapping Failure: A Kentico field expected by AuthorizeNet is missing or malformed. iPaaS logs error, routes message to dead-letter queue, and alerts administrator.
  • Webhook Delivery Failure: AuthorizeNet webhook fails to reach iPaaS. AuthorizeNet's retry mechanism kicks in. iPaaS monitors and alerts if persistent.
  • Duplicate Transaction Attempt: iPaaS detects a potential duplicate `createTransaction` request (e.g., due to a retry). Idempotency logic prevents duplicate charge.

Support & Information

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about integration implementation, security, and best practices.

Workflow & Error Handling FAQs

▸ How does the integration handle payment failures or refunds initiated from Kentico?
Payment failures from AuthorizeNet trigger webhooks to the iPaaS, which then updates Kentico's order status and can initiate automated dunning workflows or customer notifications. Refunds are initiated from Kentico (or an ERP), orchestrated by the iPaaS to call AuthorizeNet's Transaction API (REFUND/VOID), and then the updated status is reflected back in Kentico and financial systems.

Security & Compliance FAQs

▸ What are the PCI DSS implications of integrating AuthorizeNet with Kentico?
The integration leverages AuthorizeNet's Customer Information Manager (CIM) for tokenization, meaning sensitive cardholder data is securely stored by AuthorizeNet, not on your Kentico servers. This significantly reduces your PCI DSS compliance scope, as your systems only handle secure payment tokens, enhancing overall security.

Workflow Automation FAQs

▸ Can I automate subscription billing for Kentico products using this integration?
Absolutely. AuthorizeNet's Automated Recurring Billing (ARB) API is integrated with Kentico via the iPaaS. This allows you to create and manage subscriptions, process recurring payments automatically, and implement intelligent dunning management workflows directly from your Kentico customer and product data.

AI & Security FAQs

▸ How does AI enhance fraud detection for Kentico orders processed through AuthorizeNet?
AI augments AuthorizeNet's Advanced Fraud Detection Suite (AFDS). The iPaaS routes AFDS fraud scores and transaction data to an external AI service for deeper analysis and anomaly detection. This allows for more sophisticated fraud prevention, automated routing of suspicious Kentico transactions for review, and reduced manual effort.

iPaaS Advantages FAQs

▸ What are the benefits of using an iPaaS for Kentico-AuthorizeNet integration versus custom code?
An iPaaS provides a low-code/no-code visual environment, pre-built connectors, robust error handling, centralized monitoring, and scalability. This reduces development time, enhances data quality, ensures compliance, and empowers business users to manage payment workflows, far surpassing the limitations and maintenance burden of custom point-to-point code.

Data Management FAQs

▸ How do I ensure data consistency between Kentico customer profiles and AuthorizeNet CIM?
Bi-directional synchronization workflows are established using the iPaaS. When a customer's billing information is updated in Kentico, the iPaaS triggers an update to their corresponding Payment Profile in CIM. Conversely, if a CIM profile is updated (e.g., via a self-service portal), the iPaaS reflects those changes back in Kentico, maintaining a single source of truth.

Integration Architecture FAQs

▸ What is event-driven architecture, and why is it important for this integration?
Event-driven architecture means that key events from Kentico (e.g., new order) or AuthorizeNet (e.g., successful payment) trigger immediate actions in other systems. This is achieved using webhooks. It's crucial for real-time updates, minimizing latency, reducing API polling overhead, and ensuring immediate data synchronization across your eCommerce and payment systems.

Performance & Scalability FAQs

▸ Can the integration handle Kentico's API rate limits effectively?
Yes, an advanced iPaaS intelligently manages Kentico's API rate limits through features like intelligent queuing, batching of requests for non-critical operations, and exponential backoff retry logic. This ensures that integrations operate efficiently, avoid exceeding limits, and maintain data consistency even during high-volume periods.
