YooMoney response format
The response to a request contains an HTTP response (status) code, standard headers, and if neccessary a response body.
Response body in case of success
The main entity of the YooMoney API is an object. For example, to make a payment, you need a payment object, and to make a payout, you need a payout object. Each request to the YooMoney API is associated with performing a specific action with an object, for example, creating an object, obtaining information about it.
Upon successful processing of a request (HTTP 200), YooMoney returns the created, modified, or requested object or list of objects in the response body. The response body format is JSON. The response body parameters depend on the request.
