API response header 200 OK, but body gateway timeout, result = duplicate posting

[Mike_James]

Hi all, just to let you know that I have received an API response (to a transaction posting) that says 200 OK in the header, yet the body says gateway timeout, and the result was that a transaction was posted twice. Our code picked up the timeout message and re-tried the posting. 

I have raised a query with the API team.

Hi @Mike_James, 

Thanks for reaching out, As you currently have an open ticket with us I will continue to reply to our open ticket and any public update will be posted in the thread above in regards to 504 Gateway timeout updates.

Hi all, my thanks to the API devs; for the first time in a long while, there were no API errors, and our retry code is redundant! Hoping this will continue.
