Hello Everyone!
We are currently using PayPal NVP API, but client wants to support shipping tracking functionality which looks like available only in REST now. I did couple of tests and it looks like transactions from NVP are not visible in REST API, is it correct, or there is some documentation that I can check?
Thanks in advnace

Good day @fortegente,
Thank you for posting to the PayPal community.
Yes, NVP/SOAP API is legacy integration. Please use NVP/SOAP API operations to access the transactions processed via NVP/SOAP API integration.
We recommend merchants to use the latest REST API integration to process future payments and use the PayPal Add Tracking API to manage tracking information.
