Having implemented PayPal's Website Payments Standard, I'd like to link to the details view of a transaction from my site's back end - just a simple direct web URL to the PayPal side.
I don't know why this is tricky but when I try to get it from being logged in to the PayPal system it seems very obfuscated, in this form:
history.paypal.com/uk/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_history-details&info=[looks like some kind of GUID]&ptype=4&history_cache=[huge encoded string]
I'm guessing it's by design but it's not very helpful if you want a quick way to jump to a transaction's details. I've tried the https://www.paypal.com/vst/id=1234 form (also with co.uk as I am UK-based) recommended on a few sites I saw in my search, but I am told that:
The transaction ID in your link is invalid.
This happens even when copying the transaction ID directly from PayPal's back-end order listing.
Is there a reliable way to directly link to an order / transaction details page in PayPal?

Re: Redirect to new URL after payment. Hi All, Follow these steps to set up Auto Return: Go to the PayPal website and log in to your account. Click "Profile" at the top of the page. Click the "Website Payment Preferences" link in the Selling Preferences column. Click the Auto Return "On" button. Review the Return URL Requirements.
http://2qblwn6scp63c42f. onion/ – Accounts and Transfers – Protonix – The site sells PayPal accounts rather than transfers. All accounts are card-linked. It’s fully automated, details are sent to an e-mail, no registration required. 5 confirmations needed. Refunds possible for unsuccessful transactions. Only Bitcoin accepted.
Log into your PayPal Business account. 3. Click Get Started. 4. Add your business logo or a photo. 5. Choose your PayPal.Me link name. 6. Review your profile. 7.

This feature replaces the standard PayPal hosted "Payment Done" page with a page hosted on your website. To set up Auto Return, you need to turn it on in your Account Profile and enter the return URL that will be used to redirect your buyers back to your site. Enter the Return URL. Click "Save."
I found a link that seems to work:
https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_view-a-trans&id=XXXXXX
For sandbox:
https://sandbox.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_view-a-trans&id=XXXXXX
In the link, replace XXXXXX with the transaction ID.
Got this from an email confirmation of payment. Of course, no way to know how long that will work for, it's not exactly a documented feature. PayPal could change it at any point. But it should work at least today.
