PDT automatic return url non work

[blackout69]

Hello everybody,

i can't get auto return to work on a url.

On sandbox, I have enabled the automatic return, set my url and enabled the PDT.

When I simulate a transaction with a sandbox account, the payment goes through, but the script I wrote in my auto return url does not run.

Can anyone tell me where I'm wrong?

Thank you in advance

Hi everyone,

This is the code I use to execute the transaction.

function initPayPalButton() {
  paypal.Buttons({
    style: {
      shape: 'rect',
      color: 'gold',
      layout: 'vertical',
      label: 'paypal',

    },

    createOrder: function(data, actions) {
      return actions.order.create({
        purchase_units: [{"description":"My Item","amount":{"currency_code":"EUR","value":10}}]
      });
    },

    onApprove: function(data, actions) {
      return actions.order.capture().then(function(orderData) {

        // Full available details
        console.log('Capture result', orderData, JSON.stringify(orderData, null, 2));
        var url = 'myscript.php;
        actions.redirect(url);
      });
    },

    onError: function(err) {
      console.log(err);
    }
  }).render('#paypal-button-container');
}

This is the code I use to execute the transaction. The redirect works, but I don't receive the transactionID (tx) value via GET.

As a php script I am using this: https://github.com/paypal/pdt-code-samples/blob/master/paypal_pdt.php 

How can I get the transactionID?

Hello and thanks for the reply,

my problem is as follows:

When I simulate a transaction with a sandbox account, the payment goes through, but the script I wrote in my auto return url does not run. I'm not getting any error messages.

Except my script.php doesn't run at the end of the transaction

    onApprove: function(data, actions) {
      return actions.order.capture().then(function(orderData) {
        var transaction = orderData.purchase_units[0].payments.captures[0];
        actions.redirect('myscript.php?tx=' + transaction.id);
      });
    },

To force my script.php to run I had to create a javascript redirect.

So I solved my problem.

At this point I wonder what is the real usefulness allowed by paypal to be able to configure a return page?

Maybe just for the IPN?

Thanks for any answers
