How to find my Live PayPal username, password and signature? Where can I find my PayPal API credentials?

Please note that the PayPal integration in HBook will be updated, as the current API is being phased out. The PayPal API currently used by HBook remains supported for at least the next two years, so existing functionality will continue to work during this period. In the meantime, we will release an updated version of HBook with a new PayPal integration to ensure a smooth transition.

Once logged in to your business PayPal account, click on the following link and follow the steps to retrieve your API access: https://www.paypal.com/businessmanage/account/accountAccess/unifiedsettings/apiaccess
