Has anyone been able to successfully get a venmo user's username when getting an order from the PayPal REST API? We're getting a response with some of the user's information, but the user_name property (docs) doesn't appear to be included. Has anyone tried this before or have any tips for thing we can try to do to get passed this? I would expect the user_name Industrial Adheisve Manufacturer property to have a value as described in the documentation for the API. I've tried looking through the response to see if the data is stored somewhere else in the object, but I've had no luck.

The only hint I get from comparing the webhooks on a sub paid via Guest Checkout to a sub paid via a PayPal account is the HTTP_PAYPAL_TRANSMISSION_SIG line looks smaller when someone uses Guest Checkout. But it's probably nothing. Thus, I don't see anything in the webhook that indicates "this sub was paid via Guest Checkout". Please let me know if you discover anything. I'll do the same. Dan

I want to allow a buyer to initiate a dispute in a marketplace but didn't find an API for it. Is it possible to initiate a dispute using PayPal's API? If not, it means that I have to tell my customer to go to the PayPal resolution center and initiate a dispute? Isn't there a way to do that from my application? I've tried to find it in the documentation.

I have a working integration with PayPal Rest API but I can't figure out how to get information about manual transfer (a user logs into PayPal and sends money to my PayPal E-mail). It seems this does not trigger the usual Payment.Capture.Completed webhooks, makes sense as I do not actively capture them but I can't find any other webhook event for this case. In sandbox noon I activated the webhook wildcard "all events" but a manual transfer did not trigger anything. Google did not help me either, I guess I am missing the right keywords. Did I miss something? What is the desired way to retrieve this information?

I want to implement a flow for transactions. A buyer sends a payment to a seller but the seller will not receive the money until my server will approve it's ok and the buyer has received what they paid for. Is it possible to do that using PayPal API crakscut? If not, are there any alternatives? I've read the PayPal documentation and didn't find something about it. Wondering if there are any other options using PayPal or other companies.

There are subscription created in Paypal, several years ago, which are paid monthly. I configured a webhook (PAYMENT.SALE.COMPLETED) to receive notifications of these payments, and so far I have not received any notification, although payments have already occurred after the configuration. There is any Paypal limitation to receive webhooks related with previous subscriptions? I'm able to receive notifications for Single Payments, with the same webhook Also, I checked on Paypal Backoffice and there is no error trying to send the notification

Good day @Davidwesa, Thank you for posting to the PayPal community. Based on your specific configuration and a buyer's location and cookies, Checkout dynamically presents the appropriate funding sources to give your buyers more ways to pay.The buttons that display are decided automatically, based on a range of factors, including: • Buyer country • Device type • Funding sources the buyer has opted to see. As a result, each buyer might see a unique combination of buttons. To prevent certain buttons from displaying, see Disable Funding(https://developer.paypal.com/sdk/js/configuration/#disable-funding) Sincerely, Chiranjeevi PayPal/Braintree MTS If this post or any other was helpful, please enrich the community by giving kudos or accepting it as a solution.
