Webhooks Management(1)
?This API is currently not supported by our SDK
The PayPal REST APIs use webhooks for event notification. Webhooks are HTTP callbacks that receive notification messages for events. After you configure a webhook listener for your app, you can create a webhook, which subscribes the webhook listener for your app to events. The notifications namespace contains resource collections for webhooks.
operation/webhooks.post Create webhook
post/v1/notifications/webhooks
Try it
Subscribes your webhook listener to events.

Try it

SecurityOauth2
Request
path Parameters
| webhook_id required | string<= 50 characters^[a-zA-Z0-9]+$ The ID of the webhook to update. |
Request Body schema: application/json
Array
| op
required | string
The operation.
| Enum Value | Description |
|---|---|
| add | Depending on the target location reference, completes one of these functions: - The target location is an array index. Inserts a new value into the array at the specified index. - The target location is an object parameter that does not already exist. Adds a new parameter to the object. - The target location is an object parameter that does exist. Replaces that parameter's value. The value parameter defines the value to add. For more information, see 4.1. add. |
| remove | Removes the value at the target location. For the operation to succeed, the target location must exist. For more information, see 4.2. remove. |
| replace | Replaces the value at the target location with a new value. The operation object must contain a value parameter that defines the replacement value. For the operation to succeed, the target location must exist. For more information, see 4.3. replace. |
| move | Removes the value at a specified location and adds it to the target location. The operation object must contain a from parameter, which is a string that contains a JSON pointer value that references the location in the target document from which to move the value. For the operation to succeed, the from location must exist. For more information, see 4.4. move. |
| copy | Copies the value at a specified location to the target location. The operation object must contain a from parameter, which is a string that contains a JSON pointer value that references the location in the target document from which to copy the value. For the operation to succeed, the from location must exist. For more information, see 4.5. copy. |
| test | Tests that a value at the target location is equal to a specified value. The operation object must contain a value parameter that defines the value to compare to the target location's value. For the operation to succeed, the target location must be equal to the value value. For test, equal indicates that the value at the target location and the value that value defines are of the same JSON type. The data type of the value determines how equality is defined: |
| Type | Considered equal if both values |
|---|---|
| strings | Contain the same number of Unicode characters and their code points are byte-by-byte equal. |
| numbers | Are numerically equal. |
| arrays | Contain the same number of values, and each value is equal to the value at the corresponding position in the other array, by using these type-specific rules. |
| objects | Contain the same number of parameters, and each parameter is equal to a parameter in the other object, by comparing their keys (as strings) and their values (by using these type-specific rules). |
literals (false, true, and null) | Are the same. The comparison is a logical comparison. For example, whitespace between the parameter values of an array is not significant. Also, ordering of the serialization of object parameters is not significant. |
For more information, see 4.6. test. | | | path | string
The JSON Pointer to the target document location at which to complete the operation. | | value | object (Patch Value)
The value to apply. The remove operation does not require a value. | | from | string
The JSON Pointer to the target document location from which to move the value. Required for the move operation. |

operation/webhooks-lookup.post Create webhook lookup
post/v1/notifications/webhooks-lookup
Try it
Creates a webhook lookup. A webhook lookup ties the API caller's REST API app to the subject account (or, if no subject is specified, to the API caller's account). If a webhook event is generated for an event that is tied to the account but not to a particular REST API app (for example, payments initiated with the NVP/SOAP APIs or through the user interface on PayPal.com), those webhook events will treated as if they were intended for the REST API app registered in the webhook lookup instead. Webhook events will then be delivered to any webhooks registered to that REST API app.

schema/link_description Link Description
The request-related HATEOAS link information.
| href required | string The complete target URL. To make the related call, combine the method with this URI Template-formatted link. For pre-processing, include the $, (, and ) characters. The href is the key HATEOAS component that links a completed call with a subsequent call. |
| rel required | string The link relation type, which serves as an ID for a link that unambiguously describes the semantics of the link. See Link Relations. |
| method | string The HTTP method required to make the related call. Enum:"GET""POST""PUT""DELETE""HEAD""CONNECT""OPTIONS""PATCH" |

schema/patch Patch
The JSON patch object to apply partial updates to resources.
| op
required | string
The operation.
| Enum Value | Description |
|---|---|
| add | Depending on the target location reference, completes one of these functions: - The target location is an array index. Inserts a new value into the array at the specified index. - The target location is an object parameter that does not already exist. Adds a new parameter to the object. - The target location is an object parameter that does exist. Replaces that parameter's value. The value parameter defines the value to add. For more information, see 4.1. add. |
| remove | Removes the value at the target location. For the operation to succeed, the target location must exist. For more information, see 4.2. remove. |
| replace | Replaces the value at the target location with a new value. The operation object must contain a value parameter that defines the replacement value. For the operation to succeed, the target location must exist. For more information, see 4.3. replace. |
| move | Removes the value at a specified location and adds it to the target location. The operation object must contain a from parameter, which is a string that contains a JSON pointer value that references the location in the target document from which to move the value. For the operation to succeed, the from location must exist. For more information, see 4.4. move. |
| copy | Copies the value at a specified location to the target location. The operation object must contain a from parameter, which is a string that contains a JSON pointer value that references the location in the target document from which to copy the value. For the operation to succeed, the from location must exist. For more information, see 4.5. copy. |
| test | Tests that a value at the target location is equal to a specified value. The operation object must contain a value parameter that defines the value to compare to the target location's value. For the operation to succeed, the target location must be equal to the value value. For test, equal indicates that the value at the target location and the value that value defines are of the same JSON type. The data type of the value determines how equality is defined: |
| Type | Considered equal if both values |
|---|---|
| strings | Contain the same number of Unicode characters and their code points are byte-by-byte equal. |
| numbers | Are numerically equal. |
| arrays | Contain the same number of values, and each value is equal to the value at the corresponding position in the other array, by using these type-specific rules. |
| objects | Contain the same number of parameters, and each parameter is equal to a parameter in the other object, by comparing their keys (as strings) and their values (by using these type-specific rules). |
literals (false, true, and null) | Are the same. The comparison is a logical comparison. For example, whitespace between the parameter values of an array is not significant. Also, ordering of the serialization of object parameters is not significant. |
For more information, see 4.6. test. | | | path | string
The JSON Pointer to the target document location at which to complete the operation. | | value | object (Patch Value)
The value to apply. The remove operation does not require a value. | | from | string
The JSON Pointer to the target document location from which to move the value. Required for the move operation. |
