• Automated tests that require manual approval in a Paypal account (with a different build tag, eg. PAYPAL_APPROVED_PAYMENT_ID
• Concurrency safety by utilizing PayPal-Request-Id

func main() {
	clientID := os.Getenv("PAYPAL_CLIENTID")
	if clientID == "" {
		panic("PayPal clientID is missing")
	}

	secret := os.Getenv("PAYPAL_SECRET")
	if secret == "" {
		panic("PayPal secret is missing")
	}

	client := paypal.NewClient(clientID, secret, paypal.APIBaseLive)

	payments, err := client.ListPayments(map[string]string{
		"count":   "10",
		"sort_by": "create_time",
	})
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatal("Could not retrieve payments: ", err)
	}

	fmt.Println(payments)
