I'm setting up PayPal's REST API using checkout.js --
<div id="paypal-button"></div>
<script src="https://www.paypalobjects.com/api/checkout.js"></script>
<script>
paypal.Button.render({
env: 'sandbox',
client: {
sandbox: 'XXXXXXXX'
},
payment: function (data, actions) {
return actions.payment.create({
transactions: [{
amount: {
total: '10.00',
currency: 'USD'
}
}]
});
},
onAuthorize: function (data, actions) {
return actions.payment.execute()
.then(function () {
window.alert('Thank you for your purchase!');
});
}
}, '#paypal-button');
</script>
The page works great when I test it. I set up a webhook listener and get:
...
[resource_type] => sale
[event_type] => PAYMENT.SALE.COMPLETED
...
Other stuff in there too, but it does not include anything about the buyer! Mostly I need their email address.
I do get the buyer's info if I use PayPal's webhook simulator and tell it to send me a CHECKOUT.ORDER.COMPLETED (instead of a PAYMENT.SALE.COMPLETED) which comes with everything:
...
[resource_type] => checkout-order
[event_type] => CHECKOUT.ORDER.COMPLETED
...
[payer] => (Everything I need)
So this question is: Is there a way to change my transaction from a PAYMENT.SALE.COMPLETED to a CHECKOUT.ORDER.COMPLETED, or at least to tell that I want the email address included in the webhook?
