PayPal Overview#

The PayPal API on Pipedream allows you to automate payment processing, manage transactions, and streamline financial operations within your applications. By leveraging Pipedream's serverless platform, you can craft customized workflows that trigger on specific PayPal events, such as successful payments or disputes. Harness the power of automations to synchronize transaction data across diverse systems, send notifications, or even analyze financial trends.

This component may be configured based on the props defined in the component code. Pipedream automatically prompts for input values in the UI and CLI.

Label	Prop	Type	Description
PayPal	`app`	`app`	This component uses the PayPal app.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
N/A	`http`	`$.interface.http`	This component uses `$.interface.http` to generate a unique URL when the component is first instantiated. Each request to the URL will trigger the `run()` method of the component.
Payment Event Types	`paymentEventTypes`	`string[]`	Select a value from the drop down menu.

Trigger Authentication#

PayPal uses OAuth authentication. When you connect your PayPal account, Pipedream will open a popup window where you can sign into PayPal and grant Pipedream permission to connect to your account. Pipedream securely stores and automatically refreshes the OAuth tokens so you can easily authenticate any PayPal API.
