Hello,
I am using the PayPal Invoicing API to send invoices to my customers.
I have some customers whose A/P teams use automated invoice processing software that'll read an attached PDF to an invoice email. They have requested that a PDF copy of the invoice be attached to the email that PayPal sends them otherwise the PayPal email gets rejected by their automated system.
I know that you can attach files to the invoice. However, this is not that. I need a PDF copy of the invoice attached to the sent email.
Is there an option to do this?

Unfortunately, that won't solve my problem.
I don't need the PDF myself. My customer needs it. The problem is getting that PDF to the customer in a way their automated Accounts Payable systems can process it.
If I generate a PDF, the best I can do is attach that to the PayPal invoice. So it's a PDF attached to itself. The recipient still needs to click the link in the email to view the invoice and download that PDF. The automated A/P systems won't do that.
So I need the PDF attached to the actual email that PayPal sends. There's no way to do that using PayPal APIs.
