This repository contains core files for all Java sdks.
Please contact PayPal Technical Support for any live or account issues.
- Java JDK-1.5 or higher
- Apache Maven 3 or higher
- Run 'mvn install' to build jar file.
- Run 'mvn test' to run the test cases for all the core classes.
- Test reports are generated in testReport folder.
- For logging - java.util.logging has been used. To change the default configuration, edit the logging.properties file in 'jre/lib' folder under your JDK root.
The core uses .properties format configuration file. Sample of this file is at 'src/test/resources/'. You can use the 'sdk_config.properties' configuration file to configure
-
Mode is specified using the parameter name 'mode' with values 'sandbox' or 'live', if specified 'service.EndPoint' parameter is not required and the SDK choses the sandbox or live endpoints automatically.
-
(Multiple) API account credentials, by appending a '.' (dot) character and the service name to 'service.EndPoint' parameter.
-
HTTP connection parameters, if certain connection parameters are not specified, the SDK will assume defaults for them.
-
Service configuration.
Developers must configure the Java SDKs from PayPal with information such as API credentials, integration mode etc.
The SDK can be configured via a static config file (useful for simple applications) or by dynamic configuration to your service object constructor (useful for larger applications that have complex configuration requirements or need to read account information from a database etc).
To use file based configuration, just create a file with the name 'sdk_config.properties', make sure the file is in class path. Use the default constructor to run with configuration from 'sdk_config.properties' found in classpath.
new PermissionsService();
If you want to use a dynamic configuration instead,
Create a hash map with the required configuration parameters and pass the hashmap to your service object constructor. For example,
Map<String, String> customConfigurationMap = new HashMap<String, String>();
customConfigurationMap.put("mode", "sandbox");
customConfigurationMap.put("acct1.UserName", "jb-us-seller_api1.paypal.com");
customConfigurationMap.put("acct1.Password", "WX4WTU3S8MY44S7F");
....
new PermissionsService(Map<String, String> customConfigurationMap);
Or
new PermissionsService(new File("/pathto/custom.properties"));
Or
new PermissionsService(new FileInputStream(new File("/pathto/custom.properties")));
Or
new PermissionsService("/pathto/custom.properties");
Or
new PermissionsService(Properties customProperties);
- Integration mode
PayPal provides live and a sandbox environments for API calls. The live environment moves real money while the sandbox environment allows you to test your application with mock money before you go live. You must set the mode property to either 'sandbox' or 'live'.
mode=sandbox
You can configure one or more API credentials using the acct* parameters. PayPal API calls can be authenticated using multiple methods
- 3-token authentication, OR
- client certificate authentication.
You can obtain your credentials by logging in to your PayPal account and navigating to the Profile -> My Selling Tools -> API Access page. Make sure to also go through the Getting started guide. If you are using the Adaptive APIs, you will need to pass in an Application ID as well.
Sample 3-token configuration
acct1.UserName = jb-us-seller_api1.paypal.com
acct1.Password = WX4WTU3S8MY44S7F
acct1.Signature = AFcWxV21C7fd0v3bYYYRCpSSRl31A7yDhhsPUU2XhtMoZXsWHFxu-RWy
acct1.AppId=APP-80W284485P519543T
Sample certificate configuration
acct2.UserName = certuser_biz_api1.paypal.com
acct2.Password = D6JNKKULHN3G5B8A
acct2.CertKey=password
acct2.CertPath=resource/sdk-cert.p12
acct2.AppId=APP-80W284485P519543T
You can execute third party API calls on behalf of other paypal accounts. You can use the Permissions API to get an authorization token and secret for a third party.
Sample token based third party configuration
ThirdPartyAuthorization thirdPartyAuth = new TokenAuthorization("accessToken","tokenSecret");
SignatureCredential cred = new SignatureCredential("jb-us-seller_api1.paypal.com","WX4WTU3S8MY44S7F",
"AFcWxV21C7fd0v3bYYYRCpSSRl31A7yDhhsPUU2XhtMoZXsWHFxu-RWy");
cred.setApplicationId("APP-80W284485P519543T");
cred.setThirdPartyAuthorization(thirdPartyAuth);
MassPayResponse response = service.massPay(massPayReq, cred);

NOTE: This only applies to classic API SDKs.
- Get the new certificate
- Encrypt the new certificate
- Check the encrypted certificate file's path in your config and update if necessary.
- Redirect your buyer to
Authorization.getRedirectUrl(redirectURI, scope, configurationMap);
to obtain authorization. - Capture the authorization code that is available as a query parameter (
code
) in the redirect url - Exchange the authorization code for a access token, refresh token, id token combo
Map<String, String> configurationMap = new HashMap<String, String>();
configurationMap.put("clientId", "...");

configurationMap.put("service.EndPoint", "https://api.paypal.com/");

...
CreateFromAuthorizationCodeParameters param = new CreateFromAuthorizationCodeParameters();
param.setCode(code);
Tokeninfo info = Tokeninfo.createFromAuthorizationCode(apiContext, param);
String accessToken = info.getAccessToken();
- The access token is valid for a predefined duration and can be used for seamless XO or for retrieving user information

info.setRefreshToken("refreshToken");
UserinfoParameters param = new UserinfoParameters();

Userinfo userInfo = Userinfo.userinfo(apiContext, param);
- If the access token has expired, you can obtain a new access token using the refresh token from the 3'rd step.
