Hi, I’m Pastor Burt. I need some help. I now have a new project that I have to create new PayPal processing site. I’ve done this before with PayPal about 8 years ago with your Classic Express Checkout, so I thought to use that. But then when I went back to my existing site, I found that my PayPal Payment submission had actually stopped working. When I click the Authorization button, I get an error message stating “No Token Passed.” That was not good news. Frankly, I have so much coding work, that I have not had any time to be able to checkout that site of mine for at least 6 months, so this portion of my site may have been down that long. I would fix it, but then I have read on your site that PayPal is NO LONGER supporting these classic sites (Wow, I’ve been away so long that I didn’t even know it was a Classic sige), and apparently PayPal does not want developers using anything but the REST API for new projects. I am a C# ASP.Net programmer, so your new REST API should not be a problem for me. Logic tells me that I should use the new REST API for the new project, and once I get that working then go back to the old Classic Site and then upgrade it as well to the REST API. I am literally 72 years old. I write in 15 languages. I started on IBM Mainframes in IBM Assembly code. I actually have been coding for over 50 years. That may sound crazy, but all of this is true. I actually have been developing all these decades. My life has been both in the ministry, and in programming. So I am no child at this. However, your documentation has much to be desired. Above you define a payment fine, but I have not seen any documentation detailing a single example of how to fire a webhook in code, which is absolutely essential. I see as I have displayed documentation on data classes, such as the Payment class, but no document which explains then (1) how to submit in code an Authorization. (2) PayPal acceptance of the Authorization, (3) Cancelation of the authorization, (4) Acceptance by the Payment by the customer, (5) Receipt of the Payment acknowledged by PayPal, detailing the PayPal Payment ID. Every developer has to have this data. Where is this information? I see you’ve been working on this for a few years now. PayPal had this detailed information for the Old Classic approach, so there is no excuse that it is somehow not clearly available for the Rest API. It should just be there. It should not be hidden. If you don’t have it, that would be a real problem. Please tell me that you have sample code. I go down to Quick-Start (https://github.com/paypal/PayPal-NET-SDK/wiki/Quick-Start), but then when I get to Sample Code and click that (https://github.com/paypal/PayPal-NET-SDK/wiki/Samples), what is there on Sample page is completely inadequate. On this page you list 3 solutions. I need the one for .Net version 4.5.1. I click the link expecting to get a download of sample code (PayPal.SDK.Sample.VS.2013.sln), but instead the only thing I get is actually a listing of the Solution file. That’s nonsense. There is no value in that at all. I am expecting full demo code of your new Rest API in a site and the demo code is not there. Where is it? I need it now. Look you folks are big players. Your company is worth 50 Billion a year. With Internet age we are in, there is no limit to how large PayPal can grow. Except for one thing: If there are no demo code, no demo videos, no real videos explaining all of this developement, no serious tutorials, your company can not grow, may even shrink due to competition, because I am not as yet seeing the support for a growing developer base capable of growing on its own. The new API Rest code that I have now lacks a lot in terms of internal documentation. I have fired programmers for failing to document there code as I see in PayPal’s code, so what I am seeing in your code is not a good standard for the health of your company. Please tell me you have demo site code, and that I can download it from somewhere now.
