58 August 7, 2012 Express Checkout Integration Guide

 Name-value pairs are separated by an ampersand (&). For example:

FIRSTNAME=Robert&MIDDLENAME=Herbert&LASTNAME=Moore

 The values for each value in an NVP string are URL-encoded.

Creating an NVP Request

The Name-Value Pair request format specifies the API operation to perform, credentials that

authorize PayPal to access your account, and fields containing additional information to be

used in the request.

Specifying the PayPal API Operation

For the NVP version of the PayPal API, you must specify the name of the PayPal API

operation to execute in each request along with the version of the API operation.

The following diagram shows the API operation part of an NVP request:

A method specifies the PayPal operation you want to execute, and each method is associated

with a version. Together, the method and version define the exact behavior of the API

operation. Typically, the behavior of an API operation does not change between versions;

however, you should carefully retest your code whenever you change a version.

To specify a method and version number:

1. Choose the PayPal API operation you want to use.

METHOD=

operation

2. Choose the appropriate version.

In most cases, you should use the latest version of the API operation.

VERSION=

version_number

1 2 ... 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 60 61 62 63 ... 77 78
