Get a quote

A quote is a commitment from an account servicing entity to deliver a particular amount to a recipient when sending a particular amount from a sender. The quote is only valid for a limited time.

An authorized client can get a quote to check the quote’s state (for example, is the quote valid or expired), as well as other payment details, such as the total amount that should be received by the recipient and the total amount that should be sent by the sender.

These code snippets return the state and details of a specific quote, if found.

Before you begin

We recommend creating a wallet account on the test wallet. Creating an account allows you to test your client against the Open Payments APIs by using an ILP-enabled wallet funded with play money.

Get the state of a quote

TypeScript/NodeJS

Prerequisites

Initial configuration

If you’re using JavaScript, only do the first step.

1. Add "type": "module" to package.json.
2. Add the following to tsconfig.json

   {
     "compilerOptions": {
       "target": "ES2022",
       "module": "ES2022"
     }
   }

// Import dependencies
import { createAuthenticatedClient } from '@interledger/open-payments'

// Initialize client
const client = await createAuthenticatedClient({
  walletAddressUrl: WALLET_ADDRESS,
  privateKey: PRIVATE_KEY_PATH,
  keyId: KEY_ID
})

// Get quote
const quote = await client.quote.get({
  url: QUOTE_URL,
  accessToken: QUOTE_ACCESS_TOKEN
})

// Output
console.log('QUOTE:', JSON.stringify(quote, null, 2))

Rust

Prerequisites

// Import dependencies
use open_payments::client::api::AuthenticatedResources;
use open_payments::snippets::utils::{create_authenticated_client, get_env_var, load_env};

// Initialize client
let client = create_authenticated_client()?;

// Get quote
let access_token = get_env_var("QUOTE_ACCESS_TOKEN")?;
let quote_url = get_env_var("QUOTE_URL")?;

let quote = client.quotes().get(&quote_url, Some(&access_token)).await?;

// Output
println!("Quote: {quote:#?}");

PHP

Prerequisites

// Import dependencies
use OpenPayments\AuthClient;
use OpenPayments\Config\Config;

// Initialize client
$config = new Config(
    $WALLET_ADDRESS,
    $PRIVATE_KEY,
    $KEY_ID
);
$opClient = new AuthClient($config);

$wallet = $opClient->walletAddress()->get([
    'url' => $config->getWalletAddressUrl()
]);

// Get quote
$quote = $opClient->quote()->get(
    [
        'access_token' => $QUOTE_GRANT_ACCESS_TOKEN,
        'url' => $QUOTE_URL
    ]
);

// Output
echo 'QUOTE_URL ' . $quote->id . PHP_EOL;
echo 'QUOTE ' . print_r($quote, true) . PHP_EOL;

Java

Prerequisites

// Import dependencies
import org.interledger.openpayments.httpclient.OpenPaymentsHttpClient;
import org.interledger.openpayments.IOpenPaymentsClient;

// Initialize client
IOpenPaymentsClient client = OpenPaymentsHttpClient.defaultClient(
"WalletAddress",

"KeyId"
);

// Get wallet address information
var receiverWallet = client.getWalletAddress("https://cloudninebank.example.com/merchant");
var senderWallet = client.getWalletAddress("https://cloudninebank.example.com/customer");

// Create incoming payment
var grantRequest = this.client.createGrantIncomingPayment(receiverWallet);
var incomingPayment = this.client.createIncomingPayment(receiverWallet, grantRequest, BigDecimal.valueOf(11.25));

// Create quote
var quoteRequest = this.client.createGrantQuote(senderWallet);
var quote = client.createQuote(quoteRequest.getAccess().getToken(), senderWallet, incomingPayment, Optional.empty(), Optional.empty());

// Get the newly created quote (fetch by ID)
var quoteFetched = this.client.getQuote(quote.getId(), grantRequest);

// Output
log.info("QUOTE: {}", quoteFetched);
