Forter Orders API

  title: Forter Accounts Orders API
  description: 'Forter is a fraud prevention and digital identity platform for online commerce. Its Core API returns real-time trust decisions for orders, payments, account signups, and logins, and supports chargeback recovery, abuse prevention, and data-privacy workflows.


    GROUNDING NOTE: The paths, HTTP methods, and authentication scheme in this document are grounded in Forter''s public documentation at docs.forter.com (see each operation''s `x-forter-status`). Request and response BODY schemas are MODELED for orientation - Forter does not publish a machine-readable OpenAPI, and the full order/account payloads are large and provisioned per-integration. Treat the schemas below as representative, not authoritative; confirm exact fields against your account''s customized API reference in the Forter Portal.


    ACCESS: Forter is enterprise / contact-sales. Credentials (a per-account site ID and an API key) are provisioned by Forter during onboarding. Requests are sent to a dedicated per-tenant host by prepending your site ID to the API host - `https://{siteId}.api.forter.secure.com/{endpoint}`. The generic host `api.forter.secure.com` shown in the servers block is the documented form; the bare host does not resolve without the site-ID prefix.'
