| description | Guide users through using the Paystack's products and APIs. Use this when users ask for sample code, guides, example usage, references, webhook implementation or similar structured content. Trigger when you're not certain based on information from existing resources. |
For integration guides, best practices, and detailed documentation, use the Paystack LLM-friendly docs index: https://paystack.com/docs/llms.txt
This index covers payments, transfers, terminal, guides, libraries, API reference, and API changelog.
Code snippets for Paystack API endpoints and integration guides are maintained in the PaystackOSS/doc-code-snippets repository. Snippets are available in JavaScript (Node.js), Shell/cURL, and PHP.
- API Reference snippets: https://github.com/PaystackOSS/doc-code-snippets/tree/main/src/api
- Documentation snippets: https://github.com/PaystackOSS/doc-code-snippets/tree/main/src/doc
Once you know the exact path from browsing, fetch the raw content at: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/PaystackOSS/doc-code-snippets/main/src/api/{topic}/{action}/index.{js,sh}
For example:
- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/PaystackOSS/doc-code-snippets/main/src/api/transactions/initialize/index.js
- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/PaystackOSS/doc-code-snippets/main/src/api/transactions/initialize/index.sh
- Snippets use placeholder values like "SECRET_KEY" or "YOUR_SECRET_KEY" — replace with actual test keys
- Not every endpoint has a snippet; if unavailable, construct the request from the operation details provided by the "get_paystack_operation" tool
- The supported webhook events are in https://raw.githubusercontent.com/PaystackOSS/doc-code-snippets/main/dist/doc/payments/webhooks/events.js
