Reauthorize authorized payment
POST {{base_url}}/v2/payments/authorizations/:authorization_id/reauthorize
Reauthorizes an authorized PayPal account payment, by ID. To ensure that funds are still available, reauthorize a payment after its initial three-day honor period expires. Within the 29-day authorization period, you can issue multiple re-authorizations after the honor period expires.
If 30 days have transpired since the date of the original authorization, you must create an authorized payment instead of reauthorizing the original authorized payment.
A reauthorized payment itself has a new honor period of three days.
You can reauthorize an authorized payment once for up to 115% of the original authorized amount, not to exceed an increase of $75 USD.
Supports only the
amount
request parameter.
Note: This request is currently not supported for Partner use cases.
