Security, and how to share and view encrypted forms

    Asked on December 10, 2017 at 6:32 AM

    Hi. I've created my form and got it linked to my auth.net account. I submitted a 'test' form, but in 'live' mode (I have no idea how to test without it actually taking my money!), on the 8th of December, but when I've checked auth.net, the transaction was declined an hour after it was processed.

    Do you know if there are certain security requirements that auth.net specifty that I haven't activated on Jotform please? IT wouldn't have been declined for any other reason.

    Also, I have 4 staff who process the applications. Is it easy for them to open each application with the 'key' please? Do you have a demo of this please?

    Thanks in advance.

    I would like to be able to test more forms before I go ahead, as there was only 1 single test allowed. Is there a way to do this please?

    If what you would like to do is to enable sandbox on your Auth.net integration, you can do this within the field's settings. Just open the settings by clicking the wizard icon, then click the gear icon.

    Then expand the Additional Gateway Settings, and toggle the Sandbox mode option to switch it to yes.

    Note: You will need to create a sandbox account with Auth.net in order to make use of the sandbox mode, as this is different from the live mode.

    With regard to security, nothing much is needed. You just need to make use of your API Login ID and transaction keys. So following the concern with the declined charging, you might want to get in touch with Auth.net's support or your bank. Otherwise, the error will happen right up front if it has something to do with the integration itself or your account's settings.

    I also have restarted your counter for you with the payment submissions. So you should be able to use your form again.

    Thanks.

    That's great...thank you Liyam.

    Finally, please could you tell me how to add sequential numbers please? I'd like to start at number 401, and then add 1 for every successful application. Thank you.

    Hi,

    I've been advertising on Google Adwords and Bing Ads this morning and spent over £320 so far, but haven't had any sales since about 9am. So I ran a test transaction, and am getting the following error:

    PCI :: Error during transaction
    The merchant login ID or password is invalid or the account is inactive.
    Please go back and fix this


    I haven't changed any auth.net settings so no idea why this has happened, but it's clearly cost me a small fortune! Please could someone look into this urgently please?

    Thanks,

    Marcelle

    Hi,

    I've has to switch back to Formstack for now, and the transactions are going through there just fine. Please can someone look into this as I'd rather be with yourselves?

    Thanks.
