Profile Type Differences

The profile-type header field accepts one of two values:

  • agent — For use when a customer-service agent inputs values provided by the account holder into an application that calls the Dispute API.
  • cardholder — For use when the account holder interacts directly with the mobile app or web page that calls the Dispute API.

Some endpoints return different values according to the value of profile-type. The values shown in this table are examples only. Because endpoint responses are dynamic, Galileo recommends that you not hard-code to these values or cache responses.
