Why did I get API error code 10600?

An authorization is being attempted which has already been voided and, therefore, can no longer be used. This error can occur on the following API methods:

  • DoAuthorization.
  • DoCapture.
  • DoReauthorization.
  • DoVoid.
  • UpdateAuthorization.

To resolve this, close the order or authorization.
