This is how I create Paypal payment from my webapp :
paypal.configure(paypal_config.api);
var payment = {
"intent": "sale",
"payer": {
"payment_method": "paypal"
},
//"receiver_email": "business#place.fr",
"redirect_urls": {
"return_url": "http://yoururl.com/execute",
"cancel_url": "http://yoururl.com/cancel"
},
"transactions": [{
"item_list": {
"items": [{
"name": "item",
"sku": "item",
"price": "1.00",
"currency": "USD",
"quantity": 1
}]
},
"amount": {
"currency": "USD",
"total": "1.06",
"details": {
"subtotal": "1.00",
"tax": "0.03",
"shipping": "0.03"
}
},
"description": "This is the payment description."
}]
};
paypal.payment.create(payment, function (error, payment) {
if (error) {
console.log(error);
} else {
if(payment.payer.payment_method === 'paypal') {
req.session.paymentId = payment.id;
var redirectUrl;
for(var i=0; i < payment.links.length; i++) {
var link = payment.links[i];
if (link.method === 'REDIRECT') {
redirectUrl = link.href;
}
}
res.redirect(redirectUrl);
}
}
});
It works perfectly but I have 2 problems, I need to set the receiver email, and the request is said to be malformed when I add the key "receiver_email".
My second problem is more a question in fact, with this method I know directly if the payment is validated or not, but what happened when a payment need more time to be validated (bank transfer etc..), there's no ipn url to give ?
Thank you !
Currently with PayPal rest payments, you cannot configure the receiver, so the payee has to be the one with the client_id/client_secret pair.
To your second question, currently ipn support is not there for REST payments but the "http post to your server when payment status changes" feature will be coming for REST payments soon. Currently the best option is to fetch the payment with the PAY-XXX id by doing a GET to check change of status.
I don't think setting receiver to be different from the client_id is supported at the moment.

This is my code. Can you please tell me how to pass the form field in PayPal API?
The Issue I am getting here is when I am trying to pass Dummy data mine API is working fine but when I am trying to pass Fields from mine Form its not working. I have console.log and check it I am getting data on this API.
router.post('/checkout/pay',function(req,res){
var title="req.body.title";
var price="req.body.price";
var qty=1
var create_payment_json = {
"intent": "sale",
"payer": {
"payment_method": "paypal"
},
"redirect_urls": {
"return_url": "http://localhost:3000/success",
"cancel_url": "http://localhost:3000/cancel"
},
"transactions": [{
"item_list": {
"items": [{
"name": title,
"sku": "001",
"price":price ,
"currency": "USD",
"quantity": 1,
}]
},
"amount": {
"currency": "USD",
"total": price,
},
"description": "This is the payment description."
}]
};
function handleError(error) {
console.log(error);
}
paypal.payment.create(create_payment_json, function (error, payment) {
if (error) {
console.log(error);
handleError(error);
} else {
console.log("Create Payment Response");
console.log(JSON.stringify(payment));
res.send('test');
}
});
})
The issue was with my form I was trying
I was trying to do something like this
value=$nbsp;"<%= parseFloat(total).toFixed(2) %>"
Instead of it should be like this
value="<%= parseFloat(total).toFixed(2) %>"
I forget that their would be a validation in Paypal Service
I do not have a website and I would like to just send a link to the user and get the appropriate response whether they paid or not on the PayPal website and handle the rest.
Basically I dont want to redirect the user anywhere.
After configuring my PayPal credentials I have the following
var create_payment_json = {
"intent": "sale",
"payer": {
"payment_method": "paypal"
},
// I WANT TO REMOVE THAT BUT IF I DO I GET AN ERROR IN RESPONSE
"redirect_urls": {
"return_url": "http://return.url",
"cancel_url": "http://cancel.url"
},
"transactions": [{
"item_list": {
"items": [{
"name": "item",
"sku": "item",
"price": "1.00",
"currency": "USD",
"quantity": 1
}]
},
"amount": {
"currency": "USD",
"total": "1.00"
},
"description": "This is the payment description."
}]
};
paypal.payment.create(create_payment_json, function (error, payment) {
if (error) {
throw error;
} else {
console.log("Create Payment Response");
console.log(payment);
}
});
var paymentId = 'PAYMENT id created in previous step';
//check if user payed or not
paypal.payment.execute(paymentId, execute_payment_json, function (error, payment) {
if (error) {
console.log(error.response);
throw error;
} else {
console.log("Get Payment Response");
console.log(JSON.stringify(payment));
}
});
I found a library that paypal themselves have written for node, they wrote a great library on how to pay. Im still in the confused state on how to receive payment and Im running out of time right now.
The use case is very simple, User A click add an item to his cart , then he has a choice, its either to pay using Credit/debit card or paypal(express checkout)
My goal still at the credit/debit card, where user decided to use credit/debit card to receive payments, and im using paypal-rest-api sdk to do this. But looking at the code samples Im super confused on which sample to choose, from
https://github.com/paypal/PayPal-node-SDK/tree/master/samples
var card_data = {
"type": "visa",
"number": "4417119669820331",
"expire_month": "11",
"expire_year": "2018",
"cvv2": "123",
"first_name": "Joe",
"last_name": "Shopper"
};
paypal.creditCard.create(card_data, function(error, credit_card){
if (error) {
console.log(error);
throw error;
} else {
console.log("Create Credit-Card Response");
console.log(credit_card);
}
})
In the card_data, there is no amount, and im really confused.
Again the use case
User could buy the item on website, and he pays using credit/debit card and it will automatically send the money from his bank account to my paypal business account.
You're looking at not the right method. You need payment.create
Here's the code snippet from payment documentation
var create_payment_json = {
"intent": "sale",
"payer": {
"payment_method": "credit_card",
"funding_instruments": [{
"credit_card": {
"type": "visa",
"number": "4417119669820331",
"expire_month": "11",
"expire_year": "2018",
"cvv2": "874",
"first_name": "Joe",
"last_name": "Shopper",
"billing_address": {
"line1": "52 N Main ST",
"city": "Johnstown",
"state": "OH",
"postal_code": "43210",
"country_code": "US"
}
}
}]
},
"transactions": [{
"amount": {
"total": "7",
"currency": "USD",
"details": {
"subtotal": "5",
"tax": "1",
"shipping": "1"
}
},
"description": "This is the payment transaction description."
}]
};
paypal.payment.create(create_payment_json, function (error, payment) {
if (error) {
throw error;
} else {
console.log("Create Payment Response");
console.log(payment);
}
});
I am trying to create a batch payout with a test sandbox account.
The 'create payment' function is working absolutely fine with correct response:
var paypal_sdk = require('paypal-rest-sdk');
var config_opts = {
'host': host, //host defined
'port':'',
'mode':'sandbox',
'client_id': client_id, //clientID defined
'client_secret': client_secret, //clientSecret defined
};
var makePayment = function (req, res, next) {
var create_payment_json = {
"intent": "sale",
"payer": {
"payment_method": "paypal"
},
"redirect_urls": {
"return_url": "http://mystore.in",
"cancel_url": "http://mystore.in/contact"
},
"transactions": [
{
"amount": {
"currency": "USD",
"total": "1.00"
},
"description": "This is the payment description."
}
]
};
paypal_sdk.payment.create(create_payment_json,config_opts, function (err, data) {
if (err) console.log("ERRRRR", err);
console.log("Create Payment Response");
console.log(data);
//res.send('201');
});
}
makePayment(); //CALLING THE FUNCTION
But, when I am trying to create a new payout, by editing create_payment_json as:
var create_payment_json = {
"sender_batch_header": {
"email_subject": "You have a Payout!",
"recipient_type": "EMAIL"
},
"items": [
{
"recipient_type": "EMAIL",
"amount": {
"value": "1.0",
"currency": "USD"
},
"note": "Thanks for your patronage!",
"sender_item_id": "201403140001",
"receiver": "shirt-supplier-one#mail.com"
}
]
};
And main function as:
paypal_sdk.payout.create(create_payment_json,config_opts, function (err, data) {
if (err) console.log("ERRRRR", err);
console.log("Create Payment Response");
console.log(data);
//res.send('201');
});
I am receiving an error as follows:
{ [Error: Response Status : 401]
response:
{ error: 'invalid_client',
error_description: 'Client Authentication failed',
httpStatusCode: 401 },
httpStatusCode: 401 }
However, I am sure that credentials passed are correct and they are working perfectly in case of payment creation.
I am doing all this for the testing first. Also, the payout feature is enabled for this respective test paypal developer account.
Is there any possible solution?
I just got the solution. Well, to add, I must say paypal should provide proper error handling to let the developers know the reason behind each error.
The error was because of the currency that I had set in the configuration. The testing developer account was of some other country and the currency code was set as "USD".
Just make a new account and set currency code in config according to the country you had selected during the creation of that test developer account.
I test payout , as below code, it works fine. You can compare your code with my sample, you can add'sender_batch_id' parameter to have a try.
curl -v https://api.sandbox.paypal.com/v1/payments/payouts/ \
-H "Content-Type:application/json" \
-H "Authorization: *****" \
-d '{
"sender_batch_header": {
"sender_batch_id": "batch_25",
"email_subject": "You have a payment"
},
"items": [
{
"recipient_type": "EMAIL",
"amount": {
"value": 0.99,
"currency": "USD"
},
"receiver": "aaabbb#email.com",
"note": "Thank you.",
"sender_item_id": "item_1"
},
{
"recipient_type": "EMAIL",
"amount": {
"value": 0.90,
"currency": "USD"
},
"receiver": "bbbb#gmail.com",
"note": "Thank you.",
"sender_item_id": "item_2"
},
{
"recipient_type": "EMAIL",
"amount": {
"value": 2.00,
"currency": "USD"
},
"receiver": "cccc#gmail.com",
"note": "Thank you.",
"sender_item_id": "item_3"
}
]
}'
I'm working with PayPal Express Checkout and and what i need to do is Authorize and Capture the payment later separately, my current PayPal flow is,
1) I create a payment using following code:
var paypal = require('paypal-rest-sdk');
function createPayPal(req, res, itemsArray, redirectsTos) {
var payment = {
"intent": "sale",
"payer": {},
"transactions": [{
"amount": {
"currency": sails.config.currency,
"total": itemsArray.totalArrayAmount,
"details": {
"subtotal": itemsArray.totalArrayAmount,
"fee": sails.config.PayPalCreateFee
}
},
"invoice_number": req.session.invNum,
"item_list": {
"items": itemsArray.itemsArray
}
}]
};
sails.log.info('payment obj :', JSON.stringify(payment))
payment.payer.payment_method = sails.config.PayPalPaymentMethod;
payment.redirect_urls = {
"return_url": res.locals.return_url_buy,
"cancel_url": res.locals.cancel_url_buy
};
paypal.payment.create(payment, function(error, payment) {
if (error) {
sails.log.error(error);
redirectsTos(({
message: 'failure',
redirect: '/paypal/error'
}), null);
} else {
sails.log.info('Payment ID = ', payment.id);
sails.log.info('User ID = ', req.session.userSession);
var redirectUrl;
for (var i = 0; i < payment.links.length; i++) {
var link = payment.links[i];
if (link.method === 'REDIRECT') {
redirectUrl = link.href;
sails.log.info('goto:', redirectUrl)
redirectsTos(null, ({
message: 'success',
redirect: redirectUrl
}));
}
}
}
});
}
and Paypal returns me the order information and the redirect urls and i redirected the user to the href in links object. then when the payflow returns to me website it sends me
{
paymentId: 'PAY-5FB60654T5508144abcxyzZLQ',
token: 'EC-26U68825EW2123428',
PayerID: 'QSABTRW6AHYH6'
}
and then i executed the payment using following code.
function executePayPal(req, paymentId, payerId, executedPayPal) {
sails.log.info('in executedPayPal');
var details = {
"payer_id": payerId
};
var payment = paypal.payment.execute(paymentId, details, function(error, payment) {
if (error) {
sails.log.error('error in payment id in executePayPal function of paypal controller', error);
var err = JSON.stringify(error);
var errParsed = JSON.parse(err);
crashHandlingService.appCrash(errParsed, 101202);
executedPayPal(({
message: 'failure',
redirect: '/paypal/error/'
}), null);
} else {
executedPayPal(({
message: 'success',
redirect: '/paypal/success/'
}), null);
}
});
}
Now what this code basically do is
Create the payment,
Redirect the user to paypal page C
Capture the payment.
and what i actually want to achieve is
authorize the payment ->
capturing the payment so that i can capture the payment some later time in some cronJob or service.
And redirect the user to paypal page in the middle of above flow, i really don't know how to authorize, redirect and then capture payment.
So please guide me in this regards.
Note: i've read the following paypal documentation but not able to understand. and please keep in mind that i need to show payment detail on paypal page and also the coupon code and its discount on the payment page.
https://developer.paypal.com/docs/integration/direct/capture-payment/#authorize-the-payment
https://developer.paypal.com/docs/classic/express-checkout/ht_ec-singleAuthPayment-curl-etc/
Thanks in advance :) .
Finally I've found the solution and i thought i should post it here so that it could be helpful for other.
So there are basically 4 following steps and one have to you use PayPal Node SDK
Create Payment.
Redirect User to PayPal.
Execute Authorized Payment.
Capture Authorized Payment.
To Create Payment you can use payment.create method of PayPal Node sdk here.
.Create Method will return url links in "href" to redirect user to PayPal page so redirect the user to PayPal page.
After returning from pay PayPal page you have to run .execute method of PayPal Node SDK here, using payer_id and paymentId recived from PayPal.
and finally when you need to capture the amount of the authorized transaction you had to .authorization.capture method of PayPal Node SDK here, by providing amount and the 17 digits authorization id recived in execute authorize response.
Code & Response sample are provided below in case if the links doesn't works in future.
.create Code
var create_payment_json = {
"intent": "authorize",
"payer": {
"payment_method": "paypal"
},
"redirect_urls": {
"return_url": "http://return.url",
"cancel_url": "http://cancel.url"

"item_list": {

"quantity": 1
}]
},
"amount": {
"currency": "USD",
"total": "1.00"
},
"description": "This is the payment description."
}]
};
paypal.payment.create(create_payment_json, function (error, payment) {
if (error) {
console.log(error.response);
throw error;
} else {
for (var index = 0; index < payment.links.length; index++) {
//Redirect user to this endpoint for redirect url
if (payment.links[index].rel === 'approval_url') {
console.log(payment.links[index].href);
}
}
console.log(payment);
}
});

You can get more information from REST API Reference And PayPal-node-SDK.
Forgive me if the response sample are somehow a little bit change because i've copied it from PayPal web.
Thanks.
