Webhook event PAYMENT.SALE.COMPLETED has no reference to Subscription or Subscription Plan

[dadandan12]

Hi,

Does anyone know how can i get subscription plan id when PayPal successfully capture the payment?

I'm struggling to get it via Sale object or billing agreement.

Thanks,

hi,

The 'Billing Agreement Id' is the Subscription Id in the PAYMENT.SALE.COMPLETED event. See a sample below.

Is it possible that the webhooks simulator is not populating that field?

I am probably going to go the way you suggest, but is there any official documentation on the matter?

Thanks,

Yes, the webhook simulator is not populating it. I had reported/queried the same in email to technical support and they confirmed it is the same webhook event which will have the billing agreement details.

What I would suggest is that you have a quick notification listener URL up and configure that in your Paypal developer ssandbox account. That way you will get better idea. the listener can be on localhost during development and you can use ngrok to configure that in Paypal env.

looks like the events generated by the WebhookSimulator omit billing_agreement_id
