Klarna Checkout API V3
The checkout API is used to create a checkout with Klarna and update the checkout order during the purchase.
You will need your Klarna API Credentials before setting this up in your shop. If you have any questions about your Klarna merchant account, you can contact their Support on this page, https://www.klarna.com/au/business/merchant-support/
Your Klarna credentials consist of two elements:
Username - Consists of your Merchant ID (eid) - a unique number that identifies your e-store, combined with a random string.
Password - a string which is associated with your Merchant ID and is used to authorize use of Klarna's APIs
Note: The API credentials are separate from your Merchant ID, and it is possible to have several API credentials associated with the same Merchant ID.
The credentials should be sent as an authorization header for every request with the username and password.
You receive both your live and test credentials by contacting Klarna sales for your country.
