Authentication and token refresh are handled automatically by the SDK.

transactionId	Integer	Yes	The identification number of the transaction to be retrieved.	101

Example with Error Handling

import { Reloadly, ReloadlyAPIError } from 'reloadly-node';

const reloadlySDK = new Reloadly({
  clientId: process.env.RELOADLY_CLIENT_ID!,
  clientSecret: process.env.RELOADLY_CLIENT_SECRET!,
  environment: 'sandbox', // or "production"
});

async function main() {
  try {
    const getTransactionById = await reloadlySDK.airtime.getTransactionById('163165');

    console.log('Transaction details:', getTransactionById);
  } catch (error) {
    if (error instanceof ReloadlyAPIError) {
      console.error('Reloadly API Error:', error.message);
      console.error('Error details:', error.data);
    } else {
      console.error('Unexpected error:', error);
    }
  }
}

Notes

• Works for both sandbox and production environments.
• Path parameter transactionId is required to identify the specific transaction.
• The response includes details such as transaction ID, operator information, amount, recipient details, and current status (PENDING, SUCCESS, or FAILED).
• Token creation, storage, and automatic refresh are handled by the SDK.
• The SDK automatically applies the correct Accept headers required for Airtime requests.
• Error handling with ReloadlyAPIError ensures you can capture API-specific issues and unexpected runtime errors.
• Useful for retrieving detailed information about a single transaction for auditing, reporting, or troubleshooting.
