Please correct me if I am wrong regarding my understanding about Paypal Rest Api process.
In reference to the links below:
https://developer.paypal.com/docs/integration/direct/create-billing-plan/
https://github.com/paypal/PayPal-node-SDK/blob/master/samples/subscription/billing_plans/create.js
I came up to a conclusion that in order for the paypal api to work, the merchant must create:
A custom button
The button must create a request to paypal in other words the merchant must manually fill out the JSON object stated on:
https://github.com/paypal/PayPal-node-SDK/blob/master/samples/subscription/billing_plans/create.js
with the merchant's product info.
Pass the request to paypal
Store the paypal response to your database.
Please advise, there are too few information out there. Thank you.
I figured it out, my question above is confirmed except that you need to active the created billing plan.

I'm trying to retrieve the capture request token from past PayPal transactions as I need that for refunding customers. We don't have that info anywhere on our systems anymore because, just don't even ask. It looks kind of like this:
AxjrrwSTQDiO3h+N6P5RABJPE8jCJjo7f4OxZX/x/FO5LcGBSKHWXfwtSx+j1ncoSt3SABJtkGk=
Is it possible to get that?
I looked at PayPal's Transaction Search API here and nothing in the response says that field exists:
https://developer.paypal.com/docs/api/transaction-search/v1/
I have also checked the built-in reports on PayPal but they don't give us that either.
Furthermore, I have tried the REST API with CyberSource and that doesn't provide the Token either:
https://developer.cybersource.com/api-reference-assets/index.html#transaction-details
I have the PayPal Generated Transaction ID, the dates, our reference numbers, etc. All I need is that Capture Request Token. I will then be able to refund customers using CyberSource.
Any help or ideas would be most appreciated.
That's a CyberSource token, so you won't find it anywhere within PayPal.
The PayPal REST API itself (no CyberSource) doesn't require it for refunds, only the transaction ID: https://developer.paypal.com/docs/api/payments/v2/#captures_refund
I need to use Request Money by PayPal. I have problem with find the best Paypal API (SOAP/REST) for this. After that i need sometimes refund this transfer.
Can somebody help me to ?
I want to see if there is a way to automate the PayPal request money part.
This is a PHP web application.
A sample payment link :
https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_xclick&business=YOUR_PAYPAL_EMAIL&amount=10¤cy_code=USD&item_name=test
Edit the value of each variable and you would be able to generate a payment link on your demand. You may also check below link for more details of PayPal Payment Standard 's variables.
https://developer.paypal.com/webapps/developer/docs/classic/paypal-payments-standard/integration-guide/Appx_websitestandard_htmlvariables/
You can send PayPal Invoices to people using the Invoicing APIs. For that you may be interested in our PayPal class library for PayPal, which makes those API calls very quick and easy.
Alternatively, you could build a more simplified money request by just generating a PayPal Standard payment URL using the variables outlined here. Then you could have that URL be a link from any button or trigger you want.
I have tested my paypal payment with sandbox account using my API details. Now I want to use Clients API details for sandbox and changed code accordingly. But it still redirects me to the previous store.
Any idiea what is wrong i am doing.
it looks like your code didn't change the API credentials in some way. Try to check again the new APIs that you want to use and replace the previous one.
Usually, for example in ExpressCheckout, when you initially call the SetExpressCheckout you provide the API credentials of the seller so that when the checkout is displayed you can connect to the seller shop to pay and all the money will be directed there.
We are doing a new PayPal Express integration for an ecommerce store that needs to retrieve the Billing and Shipping Address information after the user logs into PayPal to authorize the payment, but BEFORE we capture the payment.
We need that information so we can create a user account in our store for them, if one does not already exist for them, and so we can properly calculate the shipping charges for the customer.
The following post over a year ago implied that had not been implemented into the REST API yet. Is that still the case?
PayPal REST API equivalent of GetExpressCheckoutDetails
If it has been implemented, would somebody please point out to me how to access that information? If so, I would greatly appreciate it.
If it has not been implemented, does anyone know when it will be implemented?
I need to find a way of getting a Paypal account holders payment history using the Paypal api. If we have a user's consent (i.e. we've already used the Permissions API to redirect them to Paypal, and they've consented to give us permissions to get details of payments to their account), what's the next step?
I've seen a similar question here which talked about using GetTransactionDetails call, but that seems only to get details for a single transaction. Another answer mentioned the Payment.List method, but didn't give an example of how it's used.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
I would recommend using the TransactionSearch API. This will let you get a list of transactions (up to 100 at a time). You can then use the GetTransactionDetails API to get more information on individual transactions.
