Paypal CC End Point

[rejoice]

How can I fetch the PayPal CC endpoints using REST? What is the model or plugin I need to use?

This is just a guess, but if you look in \projectfolder\vendors\components\gateways\nonmerchant\paypal_payments_standard\paypal_payments_standard.php you will find 

PaypalPaymentsStandard extends NonmerchantGateway

It looks like you are required to have a Blesta invoice to pay to use this gateway, so you will probably need to generate an invoice first.

On line 232 there is buildProcess where I found this information. It looks like it's building the request to paypal. Maybe someone else can shed some more light.

I found this -

So I tried accessing an endpoint via the attached image method in postman and it looks like we are on the right track. Looks like the arguments are as follows -

"contact_info" => $contact_info, "amount" => $amount, "currency" => $currency, "invoice_amounts" => $invoice_amounts, "options" => $options, "gateway_id" => $gateway_id

This method and docblock can be found in \components\gateway_payments\gateway_payments.php

That's cause it needs 3 values to work not sure which ones though.

If you're trying to use the API to fetch a non-merchant gateway's payment HTML, see Payments::getBuildProcess as @coreyman mentioned above. The arguments required are the method's parameters.

If you are making a merchant CC payment, look at the other end-points available on the same page.

Oh yeah I'm aware, I was just pointing him in the right direction
