 Exchange RESTful API
 ====================
 
 The API specified here follows the :ref:`general conventions <http-common>`
 for all details not specified in the individual requests.
 The `glossary <https://docs.taler.net/taler-developer-manual.html#developer-glossary>`_
 defines all specific terms used in this section.

 * ``v42``: batch recoup protocol: adds :http:post:`/recoup-withdraw </recoup-withdraw>`
            and :http:post:`/recoup-refresh </recoup-refresh>`, removes
            ``/coins/$COIN_PUB/recoup`` and ``/coins/$COIN_PUB/recoup-refresh``;
            adds ``planchets_h``, ``rc`` and ``coin_index`` to the recoup entries
            of coin and reserve histories;
            coin conflict proofs: specifies `CoinDenominationConflictError`
            and `CoinAgeCommitmentConflictError` for the 409 responses with
            error codes ``TALER_EC_EXCHANGE_GENERIC_COIN_CONFLICTING_DENOMINATION_KEY``
            and ``TALER_EC_EXCHANGE_GENERIC_COIN_CONFLICTING_AGE_HASH``, which
            now carry the stored denomination signature (and age commitment
            hash) of the coin so that clients can verify the conflict;
            adds the required ``reserve_pub`` field to the
            :http:post:`/reveal-withdraw </reveal-withdraw>` request body,
            so that a withdraw operation is identified by the pair
            (reserve, commitment) everywhere;
            bounds ``purse_expiration`` by the new ``max_p2p_expiration``
            of :http:get:`/keys </keys>` and by the legal expiration of the
            denominations of the coins in the purse, with the new error
            codes ``TALER_EC_EXCHANGE_PURSE_CREATE_EXPIRATION_TOO_LATE``,
            ``TALER_EC_EXCHANGE_RESERVES_PURSE_EXPIRATION_TOO_LATE`` and
            ``TALER_EC_EXCHANGE_PURSE_DENOMINATION_LEGAL_EXPIRES_TOO_SOON``
 * ``v45``: the refresh commitment :ref:`TALER_RefreshCommitmentP <TALER_RefreshCommitmentP>` now includes
            the transfer public keys of the :http:post:`/melt </melt>`
            request; clients must include them with exchanges of v45 or
            later.  The exchange still accepts the commitment without
            them from older clients.
 
 **Upcoming versions:**
 
 * ``vIMPORT``: external KYC/KYB data import
 * ``vATTEST``: KYC attestation support
 
 **Ideas for future version:**
 
 * ``vXXX``: marker for features not yet targeted for release

 Exchange status information
 ---------------------------
 
 This API is used by wallets and merchants to obtain global information about
 the exchange, such as online signing keys, available denominations and the fee
 structure.  This is typically the first call any exchange client makes, as it
 returns information required to process all of the other interactions with the
 exchange.  The returned information is secured by (1) signature(s) from the exchange,
 especially the long-term offline signing key of the exchange, which clients should
 cache; (2) signature(s) from auditors, and the auditor keys should be
 hard-coded into the wallet as they are the trust anchors for Taler; (3)
 possibly by using HTTPS.

 ----------------
 Blinding Prepare
 ----------------
 
 Certain denomination cipher types, such as Clause-Schnorr, require input values
 from the exchange-side as preparation for the blinding of the coins.  See the
 Bachelor thesis of Gian Demarmels and Lucien Heuzeveldt,
 `Adding Schnorr’s Blind Signature in Taler <https://www.taler.net/papers/cs-thesis.pdf>`_,
 for details.
 
 .. include:: exchange/post-blinding-prepare.rst
 
 
 .. _exchange-withdrawal:
 
 ----------
 Withdrawal
 ----------
 
 This API is used by the wallet to obtain digital coins.
 
 When transferring money to the exchange such as via SEPA transfers, the exchange creates
 a *reserve*, which keeps the money from the customer.  The customer must
 specify an EdDSA reserve public key as part of the transfer, and can then
 withdraw digital coins using the corresponding private key.  All incoming and
 outgoing transactions are recorded under the corresponding public key by the
 exchange.
 
 .. note::
 
    Eventually the exchange will need to advertise a policy for how long it will
    keep transaction histories for inactive or even fully drained reserves.  We
    will therefore need some additional handler similar to :http:get:`/keys </keys>` to
    advertise those terms of service.

 .. _reveal-withdraw:
 
 **Reveal-Withdraw**
 
 This endpoint is called by the client after a call to `withdraw`_,
 *if* the original request had ``max_age`` set and
 the response was of type `AgeWithdrawResponse`.
 Now the client has to disclose for each coin all but one of the κ secrets
 that went into creating the blinded coin's planchets,
 including the commitment to age restriction,
 and prove that the age restriction was set correctly.
 
 .. include:: exchange/post-reveal-withdraw.rst
 
 
 ----------
 Refreshing
 ----------
 
 Refreshing exchanges one old coin against ``n`` new coins, where the sum of
 denominations of the new coins must be smaller than the old coin's
 denomination plus melting (refresh) and withdrawal fees charged by the exchange.
 The refreshing API can be used by wallets to melt partially spent coins, making
 transactions with the freshly exchanged coins unlinkable to previous transactions
 by anyone except the wallet itself.
 
 Refreshing is a two-step process, consisting of
 
 1. the **melting** of the old coin, together with ``kappa`` batches
    of blinded planchets candidates,
 2. the **reveal** of ``kappa-1`` secrets to prove the proper construction
    of the (revealed) batches of blinded planchets candidates.

 Reveal-Melt
 ^^^^^^^^^^^
 
 This endpoint is called by the client after a call to `melt`_.
 Now the client has to disclose --for each coin--
 all but one of the κ secrets that went into creating the blinded coin's planchets,
 the transfer public keys (linking the ownership of the old and new coin),
 and the commitment to age restriction,
 as proof that the age restriction was set correctly (if applicable).
 
 .. include:: exchange/post-reveal-melt.rst
 
 
 .. _deposit-par:
 
 -------
 Deposit
 -------
 
 Deposit operations are requested f.e. by a merchant during a transaction or a
 bidder during an auction.
 
 For the deposit operation during purchase, the merchant has to obtain the
 deposit permission for a coin from their customer who owns the coin.  When
 depositing a coin, the merchant is credited an amount specified in the deposit
 permission, possibly a fraction of the total coin's value, minus the deposit
 fee as specified by the coin's denomination.
 
 For auctions, a bidder performs a deposit operation and provides all relevant
 information for the auction policy (such as timeout and public key as bidder)
 and can use the ``exchange_sig`` field from the `DepositSuccessResponse`
 message as a proof to the seller for the escrow of sufficient fund.
 
 
 .. _deposit:
 
 .. include:: exchange/post-batch-deposit.rst
 
 
 ------
 Recoup
 ------
 
 The purpose of this API is to allow coins to be cashed back in,
 in certain exceptional situations.
 This API is only used if the exchange is either about to go out of
 business or has had its private signing keys compromised (so in
 either case, the protocol is only used in **abnormal**
 situations).  In the above cases, the exchange signals to the
 wallets that the emergency cash back protocol has been activated
 by putting the affected denomination keys into the cash-back
 part of the :http:get:`/keys </keys>` response.  If and only if this has happened,
 coins that were signed with those denomination keys can be cashed
 in using this API.
 
 Since protocol **vRECOUP**, coins are recouped in batches: all coins in one
 request must originate from the same withdraw or refresh operation, which
 the client identifies by its commitment (``planchets_h`` of the withdraw
 request, or ``rc`` of the melt request).  For the coins to be recouped, the
 client discloses the secret material from which the exchange recomputes
 their blinded envelopes; for the other coins of the same operation it
 provides the hashes of the blinded envelopes.  This allows the exchange to
 recompute the commitment and thereby verify that the coins were part of the
 operation, without having to keep individual envelopes in its database.
 Coins from a withdraw operation are paid back to the reserve
 (:http:post:`/recoup-withdraw </recoup-withdraw>`), coins from a refresh
 operation to the old coin that was melted
 (:http:post:`/recoup-refresh </recoup-refresh>`).

 -----------------------
 Tracking wire transfers
 -----------------------
 
 This API is used by merchants that need to find out which wire
 transfers (from the exchange to the merchant) correspond to which deposit
 operations.  Typically, a merchant will receive a wire transfer with a
 **wire transfer identifier** and want to know the set of deposit
 operations that correspond to this wire transfer.  This is the
 preferred query that merchants should make for each wire transfer they
 receive.  If a merchant needs to investigate a specific deposit
 operation (i.e. because it seems that it was not paid), then the
 merchant can also request the wire transfer identifier for a deposit
 operation.
 
 Sufficient information is returned to verify that the coin signatures
 are correct. This also allows governments to use this API when doing
 a tax audit on merchants.
 
 Naturally, the returned information may be sensitive for the merchant.
 We do not require the merchant to sign the request, as the same requests
 may also be performed by the government auditing a merchant.
 However, wire transfer identifiers should have sufficient entropy to
 ensure that obtaining a successful reply by brute-force is not practical.
 Nevertheless, the merchant should protect the wire transfer identifiers
 from his bank statements against unauthorized access, lest his income
 situation is revealed to an adversary. (This is not a major issue, as
 an adversary that has access to the line-items of bank statements can
 typically also view the balance.)

 This section describes the reserve control API which can be used to (1)
 prevent a reserve from expiring, to (2) pay an annual fee to allow a number of
 purses to be created for the respective reserve without paying a purse fee
 each time, to (3) obtain KYC information associated with a reserve to prove
 the identity of the person sending an invoice to the payer, and to (4) close a
 reserve before it would naturally expire and possibly (5) wire the funds to a
 designated account.
