PayPal

UpdatedMay 22, 2026Reading time1 min read

What it does

PayPal creates, captures, and reads Orders V2. Uses api_key auth (client_id + client_secret) — repository handles the client_credentials token exchange + caching internally.

Setup

  1. In the PayPal Developer Dashboard, create an app (Live or Sandbox) and copy Client ID + Secret.
  2. In FlowFn, go to Platform Tools → PayPal → Connect and provide client_id, client_secret, mode (live / sandbox).

Actions

  • Create Order, Capture Order, Get Order

Notes

PayPal's REST API uses client_credentials (server-to-server), not Authorization-Code OAuth. amount is a string. Approve URL must be opened by the buyer before capture.
