I just configured PayPal Express, but for accounting purposes, I must pass the value ‘7777’ along with every PayPal transaction. Can you please point me to some documentation about how to do this?

The value I need to pass is the Item ID column. I need to set the Item ID to a specific value.

Hi there,
I checked into this and the PayPal Express gateway will need a filter hook added to allow passing more data onto PayPal. I can let you know how to use the filter hook to pass a specific value to the Item ID column, after the hook has been added.

I have added this code to my site-specific plugin, but it doesn’t pass the item_id value to PayPal:
add_filter( 'FHEE__EEG_Paypal_Standard__set_redirection_info__arguments', 'jf_ee_add_paypal_item_id' );
function jf_ee_add_paypal_item_id( $redirect_args ) {
if ( ! defined( 'EE_MER_PATH' ) ) {
$checkout = EE_Registry::instance()->SSN->checkout();
if ( $checkout instanceof EE_Checkout ) {
$transaction = $checkout->transaction;
if ( $transaction instanceof EE_Transaction ) {
foreach ( $transaction->registrations() as $registration ) {
if ( $registration instanceof EE_Registration ) {
$event = $registration->event();
if ( $event instanceof EE_Event ) {
$meta_key_value = get_post_meta( $event->ID(), 'paypal_item_id', true );
if ( ! empty( $meta_key_value ) ) {
$redirect_args[ 'item_number_1' ] = $meta_key_value;
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
return $redirect_args;
}

That’s because the code you’re trying to use is for the PayPal Standard gateway. A similar hook isn’t available for PayPal Express yet.

Any time frame for the availability of that code?

Not much time it’s already in the release candidate for the next release.

Update: The release candidate was released today. Starting with EE4.9.26.p, you can use the
FHEE__EEG_Paypal_Express__set_redirection_info__arguments
filter hook. Here’s a link to a gist that shows an example of how to use that hook:
