Approve an authorization

[Deprecated] Approves a pending Issuing Authorization object. This request should be made within the timeout window of the real-time authorization flow. This method is deprecated. Instead, respond directly to the webhook request to approve an authorization.

Returns

Returns an approved Issuing Authorization object.

Parameters

• amount (integer, optional) If the authorization’s pending_request.is_amount_controllable property is true, you may provide this value to control how much to hold for the authorization. Must be positive (use decline to decline an authorization request).

• metadata (object, optional) Set of key-value pairs that you can attach to an object. This can be useful for storing additional information about the object in a structured format. Individual keys can be unset by posting an empty value to them. All keys can be unset by posting an empty value to metadata.
