Examples

Retrieve a single transaction from your integration

paystack txn get-txns --pagination 1

Running the command above should yield a result similar to the dump shown below

By default, the results you get from the cli is a Response object which is a NamedTuple returned by Pypaystack2. To get a json result, use the --data-only flag.

paystack txn get-txns --pagination 1 --data-only
