Hi, I am trying to set up paypal subscriptions...
Compared with Stripe, the PayPal APIs are very messy and confusing. It looks like this is what happens when big bank tries to be developer friendly.... 😞
There are lot of links to this GitHub repository for Ruby, but it is now 404: https://github.com/paypal/Checkout-Ruby-SDK
I need a solution with webhooks...
I have reviewed this: https://developer.paypal.com/api/rest/webhooks/
But found after wasting hours that no events fire when I use PayPal buttons ... It seems (although not documented) that any subscription created with a paypal button won't trigger a webhook?
Is there any sane and reasonably well documented way to set up subscriptions with PayPal, using webhooks, with a Ruby SDK?
