Dispute API Workflows

👍

Availability

The Dispute API is under development and will be generally available in 2025.

The Creating a Dispute guide gives general instructions for creating a dispute case. This page shows the endpoint workflows for specific combinations of ClaimReasonType and ClaimReason, which you submit with the Add Case Reasons endpoint (third endpoint in every sequence).

❗️

Warning

You must call the endpoints in the order shown for each dispute type. Failure to follow the sequence will prevent you from completing the intake flow.
