PayPal REST API: - Is it possible or required to reactivate my subscription if it's in one of the following states to use it; "BILLING.SUBSCRIPTION.SUSPENDED", "BILLING.SUBSCRIPTION.CANCELLED", "BILLING.SUBSCRIPTION.EXPIRED"?

 

To use an already existing subscription for recurring payments that is in either of these states; "BILLING.SUBSCRIPTION.SUSPENDED", "BILLING.SUBSCRIPTION.CANCELLED", "BILLING.SUBSCRIPTION.EXPIRED", would reactivating it be the solution?

Hi @Temp20240611G ,

Thank you for posting to the PayPal Merchant Community. You can reactivate a subscription in this status, "BILLING.SUBSCRIPTION.SUSPENDED", if it was suspended by you or the subscriber. If it was suspended for non payment, it cannot be reactivated. You may be able to reactivate "BILLING.SUBSCRIPTION.EXPIRED" if you make an update to the subscription adding additional cycles.

Here is details on updating subscriptions:

Here are details on Pausing and resuming subscriptions:

Thank you,
