I am using the PayPal API to create and capture payment orders. I would like to know if it is possible to obtain the card data, payment method and the name of the cardholder after capturing the order? So far I only get it to return the payment amount, its description and its reference id, but according to the API it should also return an object called payment_source, which I can't see.
I'll paste the response I get:

Thanks in advance.
No, it is not possible for a normal PayPal Checkout. Customer billing information (e.g. whether they paid with a card or some other funding source) is kept private by design.
Payment source information only exists when integrating with Advanced custom card fields, which is an add-on hosted fields integration and requires applying to enable it and additional development to present the alternate hosted fields checkout below the regular PayPal button.
