Billing contact validation

On October 1, 2024 we will be adding validation to prevent 15-16 digit numbers from being passed into the Rainforest API in the billing contact fields.

This validation will be enforced in the Create payin config and Create payment method config endpoints on the following fields:

billing_contact.name
billing_contact.address_line_1
billing_contact.address_line_2
billing_contact.city
billing_contact.state
billing_contact.email
billing_contact.phone

If the value for any of these fields contains a 15-16 digit number in one of the following formats, then the request will return a 400 Bad Request with the below error message.

0000000000000000
000000000000000
0000-0000-0000-0000
0000-000000-00000

{
    "status": "ERROR",
    "data": null,
    "errors": [
        {
            "field": "billing_contact.name", // respective field
            "code": "RequestBody",
            "message": "Field cannot contain 16 digit numbers. For more info visit https://docs.rainforestpay.com/v2023-01-01/reference/create_payin_config"
        }
    ]
}

Please ensure your integration with Rainforest does not allow 15-16 digit numbers to be sent to the Rainforest API.
