Export Paypal Billing Agreement IDs
Hello,
We have a very important question.
Do you store the paypal billing agreement IDs of our clients?
If yes, can you tell where we can find them and how to export them?
If not, can you please tell us where can we find them?
Cheers

Hi Yannis,
Yes, for customers who are paying with a credit card through PayPal Pro, Cheddar stores the PayPal Billing Agreement ID as a
gatewayTokenwith each customer record. When you make acustomers/getcall to export your data, thegatewayTokenwill be included. Let me know if you have any other questions.Meghan

Hi Meghan,
What about clients that have paid through their paypal account and not credit card?
That's what I am looking for.

Yes, we have that as well, but in our case, it isn't called a billing agreement ID. Our PayPal Standard integration uses a method called Preapprovals. Once the customer authorizes the recurring payment in PayPal, we get a preapproval key that we use for recurring transactions. I think that's what you'll need to transfer the payment records. For customers paying with their PayPal account, the preapproval key is saved as the
subscription[gatewayToken]which is within the customer data returned from thecustomers/getendpoint.Meghan
