When we're calling https://scl-sandbox.dev.clover.com/v1/orders/id/pay the capture setting on the created charge is always set to true. Is there a way to set this to false so tips can be added in store? Alternatively is there a way to tie a charge to an order?
No, tips cannot be added in store, if you want to accept a tip, you need to do it at the time of the charge (tip_amount on CreateChargeRequest). Yes, there is a way to tie a charge to an order, please see - https://docs.clover.com/clover-platform/docs/creating-and-paying-for-orders-sdk.
Is that planned for a later release? This is different then how the old payments API worked. The other problem is the tip line is still being printed on the customer receipt even though tips can't be added on just orders paid online now.
I meant can a separate charge (https://scl-sandbox.dev.clover.com/v1/charges) be tied to an existing order. So for example we could create a charge (capture = false) and apply that to an order in a separate call. This would also let us make sure a payment is valid before creating an order in Clover.
I don't believe this is planned. "even though tips can't be added on just orders paid online now." Tips can be added on the online charge.
