It seems like there might be an issue with the response object not having the getSubscriptionId() method. Based on the Authorize.Net SDK documentation, the correct method to retrieve the subscription ID is getSubscriptionId().

However, there are a few things you can check:

SDK Version Compatibility: Ensure that the version of the Authorize.Net SDK you're using supports the getSubscriptionId() method. There might be changes or updates in different versions.

Response Object Check: Verify the structure of the $response object by printing its details. You can use var_dump($response) or print_r($response) to inspect the response structure.

API Response: Double-check the response you're receiving from the API. It's possible that the subscription ID is not being returned for some reason.

Here's a quick modification to help you debug:

Replace the line:

echo "SUCCESS: Subscription ID : " . $response->getSubscriptionId() . "\n";

With:

var_dump($response);

This will output the complete response object. Check if there's any information related to the subscription ID.

If the issue persists, you may need to consult the Authorize.Net SDK documentation or community forums for the specific version you are using. It's possible there might be changes in the SDK or API responses that you need to account for.
