Hosted Payment Pages
Pauses a payment link.
POST
/api/hostedpaymentpages/sessions/{sessionId}/pause
deprecated
Requires: HostedPaymentPage.HppSessions, HostedPaymentPage.HppSessions.Create, merchant scope.
Requires API key scope:
transactions:write
(Take payments)
Takes the link out of service without spending or destroying it: it keeps its expiry, its
completion cap, its prefill and its completion history, and a resume puts it straight back
into service. A payer who opens a paused link sees the merchant's own message rather than
the generic out-of-service copy. Refused when the link has already reached a terminal status,
because a pause implies a resume and nothing can resume a link that is consumed, completed,
revoked or cancelled; the refusal carries that status's own error code, whose HTTP status is
published in the error catalogue rather than declared here (declaring any response on an
action suppresses the conventionally inferred 200 and drops the shared rate-limit response,
which is why the sibling revoke action declares none either).
Signed in, you can send this request to your own sandbox merchant from the console
and read the answer.

Request example
Example
Pause a link with a message for payers
Takes the link out of service and sets the message a payer sees when they open it. The link keeps its expiry, completion cap, prefill and history, and a resume puts it back in service. Put the session id in the route. The message is plain text.

429
The request was refused because a rate limit was exceeded, or because something a later retry can clear stopped it. A rate limit refusal carries an `application/problem+json` body: wait at least the interval `Retry-After` names before retrying, then back off. Limits are tuned per deployment, so read the allowance from the response headers rather than assuming a fixed ceiling. Any other refusal carries the standard error envelope as `application/json`, and its `error.code` names the cause.
