Hi,
after a successful payment via PayPal you will be redirected to the shop page, you will receive the trans_id as a GET variable.
With the help of this GET variable, I would like to query the status of the payment again separately - if possible as the email document that the user received from PayPal that the payment was made.
Or is there another way to query the status of the payment afterwards and get more than just a "yes/no"?
Thank you

Good day @markknochen,
Thank you for posting to the PayPal community.
Yes, merchants use the below API calls and get the details(status, amount details, etc).
Order details : https://developer.paypal.com/docs/api/orders/v2/#orders_get
Authorized payment details : https://developer.paypal.com/docs/api/payments/v2/#authorizations_get
Captured payment details : https://developer.paypal.com/docs/api/payments/v2/#captures_get
Sincerely,
Chiranjeevi
PayPal/Braintree MTS
