Node.js
Introduction
The Mangopay Node.js SDK makes working with the Mangopay API easier in a Node.js environment. This SDK is open-source and available on GitHub.
Mangopay Node.js SDK →Prerequisites
To run the Mangopay Node.js SDK, you’ll need:
- A
ClientId
and an API key – if you don’t have these, contact Sales to get access to the Mangopay Dashboard - Node.js installed (v.14 and higher)
- npm package manager installed
Note - Mangopay SDK compatibility
The Node.js SDK is only compatible with the v2.01 version of the Mangopay API.
Getting started
- Install the SDK
- Initialize the SDK
The configuration object of the SDK supports all the following properties:

responseTimeout | integer | 80000 | Set response timeout limit (in milliseconds). |

SDK usage
All endpoints are documented with the related Node.js SDK method throughout the Mangopay documentation. The code examples provided should be adjusted for your usage.
TypeScript
The SDK is compatible with TypeScript and provides a set of predefined models. They are available in the /lib/models/ GitHub folder.
Using callbacks instead of promises
Across the Mangopay endpoint documentation, the usage of the SDK is documented with promises. If you prefer callbacks, here is an example on how to use them:
Pagination and filtering
For endpoints that support pagination and filtering, you can use options.parameters
to specify these options:
Accessing response headers
For reading the server response headers, you can use resolveWithFullResponse. This is useful to access information about the pagination or rate limiting.
