PayPal Express Checkout Shortcut will be deprecated by November 1, 2024.
We will release the new PayPal Express Checkout on Web Drop-in/Components in April 2024.
After authorising the payment, PayPal sends the payment data to Adyen. Adyen then sends an HTTP POST message to the predefined result URL, i.e. the return URL to a specified page on your website. This URL points to an order review page where the shopper can review and update the order, for example by selecting new quantities, or by adding or removing items.
If the shopper updates the order and submits the changes, order recalculation takes place on the merchant's backend; make sure you implement the necessary logic on your end. The HTTP POST message we send you includes:
- PayPal Express Checkout payment data for the current transaction.
- We append to the result URL a number of URL query parameters to provide you with transaction status information.
The authResult URL parameter notifies you about the current transaction status:
- authResult=PENDING: The shopper authorised the payment on PayPal, the payment data is available. The transaction is in progress. You need to send a payment authorisation request to authorise it.
- authResult=CANCELLED: The shopper either canceled or did not successfully authorise the payment on PayPal. The transaction is canceled.
- authResult=REFUSED: PayPal refused to initiate the transaction.
- authResult=ERROR: An error is returned in all other cases.
For further information on the URL query parameters that we return at this point in the flow, refer to Hosted Payment Pages.
