Magento 2 API Issue A Partial Refund

Magento 2 API (Updated 2024): Create a Partial Refund

In our previous post, we had created an invoice and a shipment, and with the order item id obtained, we can create a partial refund using Magento 2 API.

If the partial refund is called successfully, the status of the order will change to Complete.

Step 1: Generate Admin Access Token

POST <host>/rest/V1/integration/admin/token

Enter your admin username and password in the Body sections, then click Send.

{
  "username": "string",
  "password": "string"
}Code language: JSON / JSON with Comments (json)

Response: access token

Step 2: Issue A Partial Refund

Create a new request and enter the admin access token.

Authorization: Bearer token

POST <host>/rest/<store_code>/V1/order/6/refund

6 is the order id.

Payload:

{
  "items": [
    {
      "order_item_id": 9,
      "qty": 1
    }
  ],
  "arguments": {
    "shipping_amount": 0,
    "adjustment_positive": 0,
    "adjustment_negative": 0
  }
}
Code language: JSON / JSON with Comments (json)

Response:

A credit memo id, such as 3.
