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.

You can check the update subscription method in API reference guide.   If the subscription is created, then you should be able to definitely get that using the 'Get Subscription Details' method. Can you post the IPN JSON that you got?   Also, do you mean a webhook event OR the IPN? Webhook works with REST like IPN (Instant Payment Notifications) works with NVP/SOAP  ... View more
