I would like to use the API to look if I have received any payment from a paypal.me link.  In particular, is it possible to get the email of the payer in addition of the amount (e.g. to send thank you email). 

 

This seem possible when looking at the response from API "/v1/reporting/transactions", which include a field with payer_info,

including an email.  Is this field always populated when people uses a paypal.me link?.

PS.  Appreciate feedback. Note that I want to use a paypal.me link because I don't want to maintain
a website.
