Following is the code you will find in **config/paypal.php**, which you should update accordingly. ``` return [ 'mode' => env('PAYPAL_MODE', 'sandbox'), // Can only be 'sandbox' Or 'live'. If empty or invalid, 'live' will be used. 'sandbox' => [ 'client_id' => env('PAYPAL_SANDBOX_CLIENT_ID', ''), 'client_secret' => env('PAYPAL_SANDBOX_CLIENT_SECRET', ''), 'app_id' => 'APP-80W284485P519543T', ], 'live' => [ 'client_id' => env('PAYPAL_LIVE_CLIENT_ID', ''), 'client_secret' => env('PAYPAL_LIVE_CLIENT_SECRET', ''), 'app_id' => '', ], 'payment_action' => env('PAYPAL_PAYMENT_ACTION', 'Sale'), // Can only be 'Sale', 'Authorization' or 'Order' 'currency' => env('PAYPAL_CURRENCY', 'USD'), 'notify_url' => env('PAYPAL_NOTIFY_URL', ''), // Change this accordingly for your application. 'locale' => env('PAYPAL_LOCALE', 'en_US'), // force gateway language i.e. it_IT, es_ES, en_US ... (for express checkout only) 'validate_ssl' => env('PAYPAL_VALIDATE_SSL', true), // Validate SSL when creating api client. ]; ``` - Add this to `.env.example` and `.env` ``` #PayPal Setting & API Credentials - sandbox PAYPAL_SANDBOX_CLIENT_ID= PAYPAL_SANDBOX_CLIENT_SECRET= #PayPal Setting & API Credentials - live PAYPAL_LIVE_CLIENT_ID= PAYPAL_LIVE_CLIENT_SECRET= ``` Usage ----- [](#usage) Following are some ways through which you can access the paypal provider: ``` // Import the class namespaces first, before using it directly use BGaeteAlvear\PayPal\Services\PayPal as PayPalClient; $provider = new PayPalClient; // Through facade. No need to import namespaces $provider = PayPal::setProvider(); ``` Override PayPal API Configuration --------------------------------- [](#override-paypal-api-configuration) You can override PayPal API configuration by calling `setApiCredentials` method: ``` $provider->setApiCredentials($config); ``` Get Access Token ---------------- [](#get-access-token) After setting the PayPal API configuration by calling `setApiCredentials` method. You need to get access token before performing any API calls ``` $provider->getAccessToken(); ``` Set Currency ------------ [](#set-currency) By default the currency used is `USD`.
