(Perl) Send ZATCA Invoice for Clearance

See more ZATCA Examples

Demonstrates how to send a ZATCA invoice for clearance, which is to send the HTTP POST with invoice hash and the signed invoice in base64 format.

# This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
# See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

# This example will send a POST with HTTP Basic Authentication to 
# https://gw-fatoora.zatca.sa/e-invoicing/simulation/invoices/clearance/single

# NOTE: At the time of this writing, I don't know for sure if the above URL is correct.
# 
# The body of the POST will contain JSON formatted as such:

# {
#   "summary": "Standard Invoice",
#   "value": {
#     "invoiceHash": "PEx8bNFcEMEpHzUVvQntQI6ot8eFqTT/l59b+H1HqX4=",
#     "uuid": "16e78469-64af-406d-9cfd-895e724198f0",
#     "invoice": "PD94bWwgdmVyc2lvbj0iMS4wIiBlbmNvZGluZz0iVVRGLTgiPz4KPEl....."
#   }
# }

# The above JSON is created from the signed XML invoice, such as the following:

# *** Look at the above base64 data for the invoiceHash and uuid.  These values are found in the invoice as shown below.
# *** We'll write code to load the signed invoice into a Chilkat XML object, grab the invoice hash and the uuid,
# *** and then construct the above JSON, which will then be sent in a POST.  (See below...)
