# Retrieve Payment Details

> Lookup a payment intent and its associated transaction state by its unique payment intent UUID.
If a transaction has already been established/completed against the intent, the response returns details
of that transaction. Otherwise, it returns the details of the pending intent.




## OpenAPI

````yaml /api/merchant_api.yaml get /payments/{payment_id}
openapi: 3.1.0
info:
  title: OwnPay Merchant API
  description: >
    The OwnPay Merchant API enables merchants to programmatically interface with
    their white-labeled payment gateway.

    It exposes endpoints to initiate payments (creating payment intents), query
    transaction statuses, issue full or partial refunds, manage customer
    profiles securely in compliance with GDPR and OWASP, generate and revoke API
    keys, and test/audit webhook delivery attempts.


    ### Authentication

    Authentication is performed via HTTP Bearer token in the `Authorization`
    header.

    ```http

    Authorization: Bearer your_api_key_here

    ```

    API keys carry specific privilege scopes (e.g., `read`, `write`, `admin`).

    Some administrative operations (like listing/generating API keys) require
    **both** `write` and `admin` scopes, as well as passing a valid platform
    super-administrator's email address in the `X-Super-Admin-Email` header for
    safety.
