Question

How to get shipping address with TOKEN using paypal REST api? I found this useful but I cant see example of usage anywhere.

Answer 1

I struggled with this issue a lot and finally found solution, so I want to share it if anyone else need it.
So question: How to get order details with TOKEN?
Add this function :
function PPHttpPost($methodName_, $nvpStr_) {
$environment = 'sandbox'; // or 'beta-sandbox' or 'live'
// Set up your API credentials, PayPal end point, and API version.
$API_UserName = urlencode('xxxxxxxxxx');
$API_Password = urlencode('xxxxxxxxxx');
$API_Signature = urlencode('xxxxxxxxxx');
$API_Endpoint = "https://api-3t.paypal.com/nvp";
if("sandbox" === $environment || "beta-sandbox" === $environment) {
$API_Endpoint = "https://api-3t.$environment.paypal.com/nvp";
}
$version = urlencode('85.0');
// Set the curl parameters.
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $API_Endpoint);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_VERBOSE, 1);
// Turn off the server and peer verification (TrustManager Concept).
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, FALSE);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST, FALSE);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
// Set the API operation, version, and API signature in the request.
$nvpreq = "METHOD=$methodName_&VERSION=$version&PWD=$API_Password&USER=$API_UserName&SIGNATURE=$API_Signature$nvpStr_";
// Set the request as a POST FIELD for curl.
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $nvpreq);
// Get response from the server.
$httpResponse = curl_exec($ch);
if(!$httpResponse) {
exit('$methodName_ failed: '.curl_error($ch).'('.curl_errno($ch).')');
}
// Extract the response details.
$httpResponseAr = explode("&", $httpResponse);
$httpParsedResponseAr = array();
foreach ($httpResponseAr as $i => $value) {
$tmpAr = explode("=", $value);
if(sizeof($tmpAr) > 1) {
$httpParsedResponseAr[$tmpAr[0]] = $tmpAr[1];
}
}
if((0 == sizeof($httpParsedResponseAr)) || !array_key_exists('ACK', $httpParsedResponseAr)) {
exit("Invalid HTTP Response for POST request($nvpreq) to $API_Endpoint.");
}
return $httpParsedResponseAr;
}
and simply make a call to that function :
// Set request-specific fields.
$token = urlencode(htmlspecialchars($data['TOKEN'])); //$data['TOKEN'] is token
// Add request-specific fields to the request string.
$nvpStr = "&TOKEN=$token";
$httpParsedResponseAr = $this->PPHttpPost('GetExpressCheckoutDetails', $nvpStr);
print_r($httpParsedResponseAr); // will hold all details such as shipping address, country...
additionally you can add check if payment was successful:
if( "SUCCESS" == strtoupper($httpParsedResponseAr["ACK"]) || "SUCCESSWITHWARNING" == strtoupper($httpParsedResponseAr["ACK"]) ) { .. }
