Other top-level attributes

Node.js

  search.orderId().is("myorder");
  search.processorAuthorizationCode().is("123456");
});

Vault associations

You can search for transactions associated to a payment method token.

Node.js 
var stream = gateway.transaction.search(function (search) {
  search.paymentMethodToken().is("theToken");
});

How the transaction was created

You can search for transactions that were created using a token.

Node.js 
var stream = gateway.transaction.search(function (search) {
  search.createdUsing().is(braintree.Transaction.CreatedUsing.Token);
});

Or transactions that were created using full credit card information.

Node.js 
var stream = gateway.transaction.search(function (search) {
  search.createdUsing().is(braintree.Transaction.CreatedUsing.FullInformation);
});

Those are the only two choices for created_using.

Customer location

Customers in the US.

Node.js 
var stream = gateway.transaction.search(function (search) {
  search.creditCardCustomerLocation().is(braintree.CreditCard.CustomerLocation.US);
});

Or international customers.

Node.js 
var stream = gateway.transaction.search(function (search) {
  search.creditCardCustomerLocation().is(braintree.CreditCard.CustomerLocation.International);
});

Merchant account

A specific one.

Node.js 
var stream = gateway.transaction.search(function (search) {
  search.merchantAccountId().is("the_merchant_account_id");
});

Or any of several.

Node.js 
var stream = gateway.transaction.search(function (search) {
  search.merchantAccountId().in("account_1", "account_2");
});

Credit card type

A specific one.

Node.js 
var stream = gateway.transaction.search(function (search) {
  search.creditCardCardType().is(braintree.CreditCard.CardType.Visa);
});

Or any of several.

Node.js 
var stream = gateway.transaction.search(function (search) {
  search.creditCardCardType().in([
    braintree.CreditCard.CardType.Visa,
    braintree.CreditCard.CardType.MasterCard,
    braintree.CreditCard.CardType.Discover
  ]);
});

Transaction status

Another one or many search field.

Node.js 
var stream = gateway.transaction.search(function (search) {
  search.status().is(braintree.Transaction.Status.Authorized);
});

Transaction source

API, Control Panel, or Recurring Billing.

Node.js 
var stream = gateway.transaction.search(function (search) {
  search.source().is(braintree.Transaction.Source.Api);
});
Node.js 
var stream = gateway.transaction.search(function (search) {
  search.source().in([
    Transaction.Source.Api,
    Transaction.Source.ControlPanel
  ]);
});

Transaction type

The two types of transactions are sale and credit. Refunds are a special kind of credit, so there are some extra options around them.

Node.js 
var stream = gateway.transaction.search(function (search) {
  search.type().is(braintree.Transaction.Type.Sale);
});

This will return all credits, regardless of whether they're refunds, or standalone credits.

Node.js 
var stream = gateway.transaction.search(function (search) {
  search.type().is(braintree.Transaction.Type.Credit);
});

If you only want the refunds:

Node.js 
var stream = gateway.transaction.search(function (search) {
  search.type().is(braintree.Transaction.Type.Credit)
  search.refund().is(true);
});

And if you only want the credits that aren't refunds:

Node.js 
var stream = gateway.transaction.search(function (search) {
  search.type().is(braintree.Transaction.Type.Credit)
  search.refund().is(false);
});

Amount

It's a range field.

Node.js 
var stream = gateway.transaction.search(function (search) {
  search.amount().between("100.00", "200.00");
});
Node.js 
var stream = gateway.transaction.search(function (search) {
  search.amount().min("100.00");
});
Node.js 
var stream = gateway.transaction.search(function (search) {
  search.amount().max("200.00");
});

Status changes

You can search for transactions that entered a given status at a certain date and time. For instance, you can find all transactions which were submitted for settlement in the past 3 days.

You can search on these statuses:

  • createdAt
  • authorizedAt
  • submittedForSettlementAt
  • settledAt
  • voidedAt
  • processorDeclinedAt
  • gatewayRejectedAt
  • failedAt
  • authorizationExpiredAt

A few examples:

Node.js 
var today = new Date();
var yesterday = new Date();
yesterday.setDate(today.getDate() - 1);

var stream = gateway.transaction.search(function (search) {
  search.createdAt().min(yesterday);
});
Node.js 
var today = new Date();
var yesterday = new Date();
yesterday.setDate(today.getDate() - 1);

var stream = gateway.transaction.search(function (search) {
  search.settledAt().min(yesterday);
});
Node.js 
var today = new Date();
var yesterday = new Date();
yesterday.setDate(today.getDate() - 1);

var stream = gateway.transaction.search(function (search) {
  search.declinedAt().min(yesterday);
});

Dispute date range

Node.js 
var today = new Date();
var yesterday = new Date();
yesterday.setDate(today.getDate() - 1);

var stream = gateway.transaction.search(function (search) {
  search.disputeDate().min(yesterday);
});
note

Time zones specified in the time value will be respected in the search; if you do not specify a time zone, the search will default to the time zone associated with your gateway account. Results will always be returned with time values in UTC.
