How do i get access to payer_id in "Log In with PayPal"?

[Ganesh7]

I'm trying to get payer_id from the Log In with PayPal integration but i'm not able to get access to it because there is no scope like payer_id. So, How do i get access to it.

Hi Ganesh7,

The Payer_ID comes after a payment was accepted by paypal and authorized by the buyer. It is part of the return URL when the buyer is send backt to the merchants shop.

And your side should extract it from that URL and use it for an execute call.
https://developer.paypal.com/docs/api/payments/v1/#payment-execute-request-body

In terms of flows:
>oAuthentication Call if your token expired
>Create Payment
<< EC-Token and payID
>Patch Calls
<< payer_ID
>Execute Payment
<< transaction ID

Kind Regards,
Stefan

Hi Stefan,

Thanks for your reply.

I'm trying to use Payout Integration in my application. I'm want to create payout to my logged in user using the encrypted PayPal Account number/payer_id. I'm getting all the user related information using "Log In with PayPal", but not able to get payer_id.
