For instance...<br /> item_name=Total&amp;amount={Total:115}(or whatever your form field you want to enter for the price). Or if it's a one price "buy now" type deal, you don't need to enter {Total:115} just put in the number. Such as amount=15.00. </p> <p>It was so stinking simple one I had the correct website address to send it to! :) </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/newb-help-redirecting#post-32420 Fri, 12 Aug 2011 15:07:17 +0000 Carl Hancock 32420@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I'm not sure how PayPal wants the data passed, but it is possible because users have done it. There used to be a tutorial on how to do this that a user had written but the site is no longer available so I can't link to it. You would have to find out what data PayPal wants passed to it via the query string, and then configure your form to pass that data to PayPal using the confirmation redirect. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/newb-help-redirecting#post-32410 Fri, 12 Aug 2011 14:29:28 +0000 kingsburyj 32410@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Rdowney, did you ever figure this out? I'm having the same issue.

The PayPal Add-On is designed to let you create order forms that integrate with PayPal and just makes things easier.</p> <p>If you don't want to use the Add-On you'd have to check with the PayPal API to see how what needs to be passed in the query string. You configure the redirect by editing your form, going to Form Settings, selecting the Confirmation Tab and then setting it to Redirect. You would then use the query string builder to build your query string and pass form field values. But I don't know what PayPal needs from you in the query string, you'd have to find that out from the PayPal API documentation. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/newb-help-redirecting#post-28441 Thu, 23 Jun 2011 17:44:53 +0000 Rdowney 28441@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I need to redirect after form submission to my paypal site. How do I correctly write the query string? i need to list price, item, currency, and return values. Any help would be greatly appreciated!! </p>
