Get recently completed transaction details

I need to programmatically get a list of completed transactions, including those that completed within the last few minutes.  I need to get most of the details of the transactions, including what the REST Transaction Search API (https://developer.paypal.com/docs/api/transaction-search/v1/) returns as 'checkout_options.'  That REST API doesn't work, because it omits transactions that occurred in the last few hours.  I looked at the description of the SOAP TransactionSearch. but I couldn't find the checkout options among the data which it says it returns, so I stopped there.

 

I imagine this is documented somewhere since it seems like a common requirement, but I've been looking for a couple of days and the only answer that I've found is to use the Activity, All Transactions browser interface and scrape the screens.

 

Is there a better way to get this data timely?

 

Thanks,

Rex
