PayPal, Item names and descriptions

[Mark MB]

I followed the instruction to set up PayPal from the link:
https://devcenter.appery.io/documenta...

and got it working with ease. However, I noticed that on the PayPal login page the Current Purchase field is empty and I would like to show the user the item they are purchasing. Looking at the PayPal_Create_Payment request, there are no parameters for name and description of the items. The closest parameter is the transaction; but all that contains is the collection of amount { total, currency } objects. There are no parameters in the request that suggest the name and description of the items being purchased.

Any help is appreciated.

This seems like a simple generic requirement. Am I the only one with this question?

Ok. I see what happend. When I import the PayPal API and then go to the PayPal_Create_Payment service I do not see the extra ItemList and Description parameters!!!! I found the newer video. Apparently, when you add the PayPal API plugin the request in the PayPal_Create_Payment service should include the Description and ItemLists parameters. But mine did not have those! Here is the newer video at the time stamp where it clearly shows those parameters I am missing. I am going to re-add the plug in and see if fixes it.

Is there a bug with importing the PayPal Api plugin not generating the right request parameters?

Re-adding the plugin did not help. I added the item_list parameters manually and that broke request. Any one can address this issue that why the request signature created by the PayPal plugin is missing the descriptions and item_list parameters??? The video at https://youtu.be/Su15fdDf2jc?t=832 show that they are there. Anyone?

I got it working following the post @ https://getsatisfaction.com/apperyio/...
