DreamApply + PayPal

Create DreamApply applicants from new successful sales in PayPal

This integration automatically creates an applicant profile in DreamApply when a new payment is received successfully through PayPal. It extracts relevant information from the PayPal transaction, such as the payer's name and email address, to populate the applicant's details. By default, the note section includes payer ID and the items paid for, though you can customize this however you'd like.
