Hi,
I'm completely new to the PayPal API.
I'm using the smart button with a web hook to capture the payment & shipping information.
I thought I'd get the shipping info with the event CHECKOUT.ORDER.APPROVED then when I get the PAYMENT.CAPTURE.COMPLETED event I'll be sure the payment is fully processed.
I noticed that the transaction ID for both are different. so I have no way of matching the two.
Is there a way to match the two that I'm missing?
Or can I just assume CHECKOUT.ORDER.APPROVED is enough to trust that everything is good and ignore PAYMENT.CAPTURE.COMPLETED?
