// handle responseSDKBaseException is the base exception class for all HTTP error responses. It has the following properties:
| Property | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
Message |
string | Error message |
Request |
HttpRequestMessage | HTTP request object |
Response |
HttpResponseMessage | HTTP response object |
Some exceptions in this SDK include an additional Payload field, which will contain deserialized custom error data when present. Possible exceptions are listed in the Error Classes section.

You can override the default server globally by passing a server index to the serverIndex: int optional parameter when initializing the SDK client instance. The selected server will then be used as the default on the operations that use it. This table lists the indexes associated with the available servers:
| # | Server | Variables | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0 | http://localhost |
local server | |
| 1 | https://{organization}.{environment}.formance.cloud |
organizationenvironment |
A per-organization and per-environment API |
If the selected server has variables, you may override its default values through the additional parameters made available in the SDK constructor:
| Variable | Parameter | Supported Values | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
organization |
organization: string |
string | "orgID-stackID" |
The organization name. Defaults to a generic organization. |
environment |
environment: FormanceSDK.Models.ServerEnvironment |
- "eu.sandbox"- "eu-west-1"- "us-east-1" |
"eu.sandbox" |
The environment name. Defaults to the production environment. |
using FormanceSDK;
var sdk = new Formance(
serverIndex: 1,
organization: "orgID-stackID",
environment: "us-east-1"
);
var res = await sdk.GetVersionsAsync();
// handle responseThe default server can also be overridden globally by passing a URL to the serverUrl: string optional parameter when initializing the SDK client instance. For example:
using FormanceSDK;
var sdk = new Formance(serverUrl: "https://orgID-stackID.eu.sandbox.formance.cloud");
var res = await sdk.GetVersionsAsync();
// handle responseThis SDK supports the following security scheme globally:
| Name | Type | Scheme |
|---|---|---|
ClientIDClientSecretTokenURL |
oauth2 | OAuth2 Client Credentials Flow |
You can set the security parameters through the security optional parameter when initializing the SDK client instance. For example:
using FormanceSDK;
using FormanceSDK.Models.Components;
var sdk = new Formance(security: new Security() {
ClientID = "<YOUR_CLIENT_ID_HERE>",
ClientSecret = "<YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET_HERE>",
});
var res = await sdk.GetVersionsAsync();
// handle responseThe C# SDK makes API calls using an ISpeakeasyHttpClient that wraps the native
HttpClient. This
client provides the ability to attach hooks around the request lifecycle that can be used to modify the request or handle
errors and response.
The ISpeakeasyHttpClient interface allows you to either use the default SpeakeasyHttpClient that comes with the SDK,
or provide your own custom implementation with customized configuration such as custom message handlers, timeouts,
connection pooling, and other HTTP client settings.
The following example shows how to create a custom HTTP client with request modification and error handling:
using FormanceSDK;
using FormanceSDK.Utils;
using System.Net.Http;
using System.Threading;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
// Create a custom HTTP client
public class CustomHttpClient : ISpeakeasyHttpClient
{
private readonly ISpeakeasyHttpClient _defaultClient;
public CustomHttpClient()
{
_defaultClient = new SpeakeasyHttpClient();
}
public async Task<HttpResponseMessage> SendAsync(HttpRequestMessage request, CancellationToken? cancellationToken = null)
{
// Add custom header and timeout
request.Headers.Add("x-custom-header", "custom value");
request.Headers.Add("x-request-timeout", "30");
try
{
var response = await _defaultClient.SendAsync(request, cancellationToken);
// Log successful response
Console.WriteLine($"Request successful: {response.StatusCode}");
return response;
}
catch (Exception error)
{
// Log error
Console.WriteLine($"Request failed: {error.Message}");
throw;
}
}
public void Dispose()
{
_httpClient?.Dispose();
_defaultClient?.Dispose();
}
}
// Use the custom HTTP client with the SDK
var customHttpClient = new CustomHttpClient();
var sdk = new Formance(client: customHttpClient);You can also provide a completely custom HTTP client with your own configuration:
using FormanceSDK.Utils;
using System.Net.Http;
using System.Threading;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
// Custom HTTP client with custom configuration
public class AdvancedHttpClient : ISpeakeasyHttpClient
{
private readonly HttpClient _httpClient;
public AdvancedHttpClient()
{
var handler = new HttpClientHandler()
{
MaxConnectionsPerServer = 10,
// ServerCertificateCustomValidationCallback = customCertValidation, // Custom SSL validation if needed
};
_httpClient = new HttpClient(handler)
{
Timeout = TimeSpan.FromSeconds(30)
};
}
public async Task<HttpResponseMessage> SendAsync(HttpRequestMessage request, CancellationToken? cancellationToken = null)
{
return await _httpClient.SendAsync(request, cancellationToken ?? CancellationToken.None);
}
public void Dispose()
{
_httpClient?.Dispose();
}
}
var sdk = Formance.Builder()
.WithClient(new AdvancedHttpClient())
.Build();For simple debugging, you can enable request/response logging by implementing a custom client:
public class LoggingHttpClient : ISpeakeasyHttpClient
{
private readonly ISpeakeasyHttpClient _innerClient;
public LoggingHttpClient(ISpeakeasyHttpClient innerClient = null)
{
_innerClient = innerClient ?? new SpeakeasyHttpClient();
}
public async Task<HttpResponseMessage> SendAsync(HttpRequestMessage request, CancellationToken? cancellationToken = null)
{
// Log request
Console.WriteLine($"Sending {request.Method} request to {request.RequestUri}");
var response = await _innerClient.SendAsync(request, cancellationToken);
// Log response
Console.WriteLine($"Received {response.StatusCode} response");
return response;
}
public void Dispose() => _innerClient?.Dispose();
}
var sdk = new Formance(client: new LoggingHttpClient());The SDK also provides built-in hook support through the SDKConfiguration.Hooks system, which automatically handles
BeforeRequestAsync, AfterSuccessAsync, and AfterErrorAsync hooks for advanced request lifecycle management.
