ℹ️

Important

For your transactions to be analyzed by Velocity, request the inclusion of this service to Cielo Support.

Velocity works by analyzing data sent in the standard integration of the API E-commerce Cielo. Thus, it is not necessary to include any additional nodes in the transaction creation request.

When Velocity is active, the transaction response will bring a specific node called VelocityAnalysis, with the analysis details.
