Did you find a way to solve this? – Retribution

Yes I have found a way for this. I have used "Transactions" of PayPal REST APIs. On each recurring payment time, I get all the transactions against the transaction id and on the basis of agreement id, update the status of recurring payment in my system. – Pussyfoot

Just commenting, I gave paypal a chance but I found out that there are many issues with the webhooks. Sometimes they send incomplete data and you have to jump around and see what they didn't send. If I were you, I would stay away from paypal. – Aside

Answer 1

There is a solution to get the list of transactions from transaction API and on the basis of agreement id verify the transaction you want.
