More Information
To decide when to use refundRequestId or refundId, follow these rules:
- If a successful result is returned after calling the refund API, use refundId or refundRequestId to inquire about the original refund result.
- If an unknown exception or timeout occurs after calling the refund API, use only refundRequestId to inquire about the original refund result.
Result process logic
For different request results, different actions need to be performed. See the following list for details:
- If the value of result.resultStatus is
S, the refund result inquiry is successful. - If the value of result.resultStatus is
F, the refund inquiry failed. - If the value of result.resultStatus is
U, the request result is unknown. Use the same request parameters to retry the inquiry request.
