I make basic PayPal payment on sandbox, following instructions on official samples here:
CreatePaymentUsingPayPal
Execution
The problem appears when my Execution service is getting request from paypal server. After dumping $_GET variables I can see something like:
array:3 [▼
"paymentId" => "PAY-9HM25571EF136871GLEWZM6A"
"token" => "EC-6VX65808WU776334M"
"PayerID" => "2ADP8W2S9ST8Z"
]
So there is no variable called "success". If payment ended without success I should get "success": false. I have no idea what is going on and how can I fix it.
Please for help,
Arthur.
The variable you're looking for is the state. The three possible values: created, approved, failed. Here's what the raw json looks like.
{
"id": "PAY-XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX",
"intent": "sale",
"payer": {},
"cart": "",
"transactions": [{}],
"state": "approved",
"create_time": "2017-08-14T15:38:12Z",
"links": [{}]
}
If you're creating the payment, to send the buyer to authorize the payment, you'd want state to be created. If you're executing the payment, you want state to be approved.
The $payment and $result objects represent the json responses as objects. Running $result->getStatus() should return the status string.
The "success" is not going to come automatically. When you make your initial POST v1/Payments call (Create Payment) you need to include the below
$baseUrl = getBaseUrl();
$redirectUrls = new RedirectUrls();
$redirectUrls->setReturnUrl("$baseUrl/ExecutePayment.php?success=true")
->setCancelUrl("$baseUrl/ExecutePayment.php?success=false");
check this out [http://paypal.github.io/PayPal-PHP-SDK/sample/doc/payments/CreatePaymentUsingPayPal.html][1]
basically just make sure you specify your success return URL as something like www.mysite.com/successpage.html?success=true . PYPL will append paymentId=PAY67S97196TG1078736LIKMI4Q&token=EC37412549V2519404X&PayerID=DNZQ8C57C7P6Q
