  2. Settings (in the left side menu)
  3. Select API access
  4. Link your Google Cloud Project to your developer account (If you have not created one yet, go to Google API Console and create one then come back here and link it )

Usage

  • Get Verifier
var Verifier = require('google-play-billing-validator');
  • Add your private key and service account email
var options = {
  "email": 'INSERT SERVICE ACCOUNT EMAIL HERE',
  "key": "INSERT YOUR PRIVATE KEY HERE",
};
  • Create verifier object
var verifier = new Verifier(options);

*Somewhere in your code, where you need to validate purchase or subscription**

Create a receipt object
let receipt = {
  packageName: "your app package name",
  productId: "sku / subscription id",
  purchaseToken: "purchase token"
};
Validate In-app purchase
let promiseData = verifier.verifyINAPP(receipt)

promiseData.then(function(response) {
  // Yay! Purchase is valid
  // See response structure below
})
.then(function(response) {
  // Here for example you can chain your work if purchase is valid
  // eg. add coins to the user profile, etc
  // If you are new to promises API
  // Awesome docs: https://developers.google.com/web/fundamentals/primers/promises
})
.catch(function(error) {
  // Purchase is not valid or API error
  // See possible error messages below
})
Validate Subscription
let promiseData = verifier.verifySub(receipt)

promiseData.then(function(response) {
  // Yay! Subscription is valid
  // See response structure below
})
.then(function(response) {
  // Here for example you can chain your work if subscription is valid
  // eg. add coins to the user profile, etc
  // If you are new to promises API
  // Awesome docs: https://developers.google.com/web/fundamentals/primers/promises
})
.catch(function(error) {
  // Subscription is not valid or API error
  // See possible error messages below
})
Acknowledge Purchase / Subscription

To acknowledge a purchase or a subscription, simple add developerPayload: <String> to the receipt object eg:

let receipt = {
  packageName: "<packageName>",
  productId: "<productId>",
  purchaseToken: "<purchaseToken>",
  developerPayload: "YOUR PAYLOAD"
};

If successful, the result will be

{
   isSuccessful:true,
   errorMessage:null,
   payload:{
      code:204,
      message:'Acknowledged Purchase Successfully'
   }
}

			"autoRenewing": boolean,
			"priceCurrencyCode": string,

			},
			"orderId": string,
			"linkedPurchaseToken": string,
			"purchaseType": integer,
			"profileName": string,
			"emailAddress": string,
			"givenName": string,
			"familyName": string,
			"profileId": string
		}
	}
}
Failed Response
{
  "isSuccessful": false,
  "errorMessage": "The purchase token does not match the product ID."
}
"Wrong productId (sku)" -> "The purchase token does not match the product ID."
"Wrong purchase token" -> "The purchase token was not found."
"Wrong package name" -> "No application was found for the given package name."

"Wrong service email" -> "Not a valid email or user ID."
"Wrong key" -> "Invalid JWT Signature."
"Wrong service account permissions" -> "The current user has insufficient permissions to perform the requested operation."

Migration from v1 to v2

v1 was a callback based, where v2 is fully promise based. If you are unfamiliar with promises, read this

The migration is very simple:

  1. Remove the callback parameter to verifyINAPP() and/or verifySub() functions
  2. Get result in a promise
  3. See example usage (above)
