Workflow

  1. Authentication via login API method.
  2. Retrieve PayPal redirect URL. When you retrieve the PayPal redirect URL, apart from the token you will also receive 2 parameters that are encoded: billingDetails and deliveryDetails. These have to be base64_decoded and the information should be used in the placeOrder API call (email, billing address etc.). 
  3. Place the order with PayPal Express using the token sent by PayPal.
