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).
disablePaymentRetry	Boolean	No	Setting this field to true will disable retries on standard checkout payment page
