delay_capture from API and capture on web portal

Hello,

 

If I am using the API to run delay_capture = true which puts the transaction into AUTHORIZED if I am reading correctly. Since this is authorize only, can the merchant portal (not api) be used to capture the pre-autorized funds? We'd like to be able to review each transaction before charging the customer or voiding the transaction. If so, is there a timeline to when it has to be "charged"? Can the web portal be used for all other actions against that original transactrion (to void/refund, etc)?

 

I couldn't tell from the API docs if this is an option:

https://docs.connect.squareup.com/payments/transactions/overview?q=authorize 

 

Thanks

Hello @WaveWorks. I checked with our API specialist for you. They confirmed that you will need to capture the payment programmatically and the payment will void in 6 days if no action takes place on the payment.
