How to Use the Authorize.net MCP in VS Code Copilot

Q: How do I share the Authorize.net config with my team in VS Code Copilot?

Create a .vscode/mcp.json file in your repository root and add the MCP Server settings. When team members open the workspace, VS Code Copilot automatically loads the tools.

Q: Can I void transactions using Authorize.net and VS Code Copilot?

Yes. You run the voidtransaction tool by passing the transaction ID to your agent. This cancels the pending charge before daily settlement.

Q: How do I list unsettled payments?

Ask your agent to call getunsettledtransactionlist. It returns the most recent pending transactions waiting for settlement.

Debug Authorize.net inside VS Code Copilot

The `get_transaction_details` tool pulls complete transaction logs directly into your chat window. This lets your entire engineering team debug payment issues using this shared MCP Server setup. By committing the setup to `.vscode/mcp.json`, every developer gets immediate access to the same tools. You resolve payment gateway errors without sharing raw API keys.

Audit Settled Batches via MCP Server

The `get_settled_batch_list` tool retrieves all settled batches within a specific timeframe. Your agent processes these batches to generate instant reconciliation reports. To dig deeper, the `get_batch_statistics` tool provides failure rates and transaction counts. You identify settlement anomalies without leaving your code editor.

Verify Customer Profiles Instantly

The `get_customer_profile` tool fetches billing and shipping profiles directly from the gateway. Your agent reads this data to verify customer accounts during migration tasks. If you need to map local databases to the gateway, `list_customer_profiles` retrieves the necessary IDs. This keeps your user records perfectly synchronized.
