ABOUT
The ABOUT command is typically used in two ways:
- As a ping mechanism to check to see if WebSphere Commerce Payments is running.
- To return version information about WebSphere Commerce Payments and the installed cassettes, as well as the user name running the command.
For more information about the structured response returned by the ABOUT command, see Payment Server About and Cassette About.
A successful execution of an ABOUT command will return primary and secondary return codes of "0", "0".
The ABOUT command is the only command that can be run by a non-authenticated user. When this command is run by a non-authenticated user, the command returns only a primary and secondary return code.
