Create Order with Python SDK

The Create SDK Order is used to generate a payment token when the backend is built in Python and integrated with any PhonePe Mobile SDK. This token enables secure payment processing within the mobile app.

Request

Use the CreateSdkOrderRequest.build_standard_checkout_request() to create the request and the following are the attributes that you can pass:

Parameter Name	Data Type	Mandatory (Yes/No)	Description	Constraints
`merchant_order_id`	String	Yes	Unique order ID assigned by you.	Max length: 63 characters, no special characters except “_” and “-”
`amount`	Integer	Yes	Order amount in paisa.	Minimum value: 100 (in paisa)
`redirect_url`	String	No	URL to which the user will be redirected after the payment (success or failure).

                                                                    amount=amount,
