Do not use production unless the user explicitly requests it. > For sandbox requests that require `customerPartyId`, list customers first. Reuse only the intended fixture; otherwise create a customer. > REST and SDK amounts use integer minor units. Payments MCP amounts use decimal strings with a required currency code. # Create voice session > Create a voice session for an open payment intent ## OpenAPI ````yaml /api-reference/openapi-early-access.json post /voice/sessions openapi: 3.1.1 info: title: Natural API (early access) version: 0.2.0 description: |- Early-access endpoints of Natural's payments API. **Base URL:** `https://api.natural.com` For access: hi@natural.com servers: - url: https://api.natural.com description: Production security: [] tags: - name: Payment Intents description: Accept card payments by link or over voice - name: Voice description: Collect a payment intent over a phone call - name: Refunds description: Return card payments to the payer paths: /voice/sessions: post: tags: - Voice summary: Create voice session description: Create a voice session for an open payment intent operationId: voice.createVoiceSession parameters: - name: Idempotency-Key in: header required: true schema: type: string maxLength: 255 description: >- Unique key for safely retrying a request without creating duplicates. - name: X-Instance-ID in: header required: false schema: anyOf: - type: string maxLength: 1024 - type: 'null' description: >- Caller-chosen identifier for the agent run, session, or conversation, required when an agent moves money. requestBody: required: true content: application/json: schema: type: object properties: data: type: object properties: attributes: type: object properties: kind: description: Voice session kind. type: string enum: - payment paymentIntentId: type: string pattern: ^pmi_[0-9a-f]{32}$ description: >- Payment intent to collect over the phone (pmi_*).
