Understand Flex and PayPal API Integration at 360Flex

Need to get your Flex app talking to PayPal and have no idea how to do it? You're not alone! I spent days losing hair (and sleep) figuring out how to get Flex and PayPal to play nice with each other. I don't want anyone else to have to go through that madness.

I've received plenty of e-mails asking for advice and code examples on this topic. In response, I will be releasing a modified copy of the FlexStore sample app with a completed order screen using PayPal. At my presentation I will be giving a detailed step-by-step talk on how I got this working. Also, although I'm using PayPal in this example, the knowledge gained could be applied to using any secure payment API.

If you haven't registered for 360Flex yet, be sure to do so quickly (really quickly actually, I've heard there's only a few seats left). This will be my second time attending the conference and I can't wait to get there! Also, don't forgot to enter the API Contest for a chance to win some really great prizes.

See ya there and don't forget to say hello
