Paypal API

Putler requires your Paypal API information to retrieve your account balance and perform other calculations. You can access Paypal via API only if you have a Paypal Premier / Business / Website Payments Pro account.

Here are the steps:

  1. Log in to your PayPal Premier or Business account.
  2. Click the Profile subtab located in the top navigation area.
  3. Click the API Access link under the Account Information header.
  4. Click the Get Started link under the Request API Credentials heading.
  5. Click the API signature radio button under the Credential Type heading.
  6. Complete the API Credential Request form by clicking the agreement checkbox and clicking Submit.
  7. You will now get the API username, password and signature.
  8. Copy the values from this page into Putler Settings.
  9. Click Test to verify the settings work.
