* Note: Requires Chilkat v9.5.0.64 or greater.

* This requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
* See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

* Load our previously obtained access token. (see PayPal OAuth2 Access Token)
loJsonToken = CreateObject('Chilkat.JsonObject')
loJsonToken.LoadFile("qa_data/tokens/paypal.json")

* Build the Authorization request header field value.
loSbAuth = CreateObject('Chilkat.StringBuilder')
* token_type should be "Bearer"
loSbAuth.Append(loJsonToken.StringOf("token_type"))
loSbAuth.Append(" ")
loSbAuth.Append(loJsonToken.StringOf("access_token"))

* Make the initial connection.
* A single REST object, once connected, can be used for many PayPal REST API calls.
* The auto-reconnect indicates that if the already-established HTTPS connection is closed,
* then it will be automatically re-established as needed.
loRest = CreateObject('Chilkat.Rest')
lnBAutoReconnect = 1
lnSuccess = loRest.Connect("api.sandbox.paypal.com",443,1,lnBAutoReconnect)

* ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
* The code above this comment could be placed inside a function/subroutine within the application
* because the connection does not need to be made for every request.  Once the connection is made
* the app may send many requests..
* ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

* To capture a particular amount, build JSON such as this:
loJson = CreateObject('Chilkat.JsonObject')
loJson.EmitCompact = 0
loJson.UpdateString("amount.currency","USD")
loJson.UpdateString("amount.total","6.70")
* is_final_capture is optional and indicates whether to release all remaining funds that the authorization holds in the funding instrument.
loJson.UpdateBool("is_final_capture",1)
? loJson.Emit()

* The JSON created by the above code:

* 	{ 
* 	  "amount": { 
* 	    "currency": "USD",
* 	    "total": "6.70"
* 	  },
* 	  "is_final_capture": true
* 	}

* This is the OAuth2 Authorization header, not to be confused with a PayPal credit card authorization...
loRest.AddHeader("Authorization",loSbAuth.GetAsString())
loRest.AddHeader("Content-Type","application/json")

* The authorization ID is added to the path.
* The authorization ID is obtained from payment records as shown here: Find Authorizations
loSbPath = CreateObject('Chilkat.StringBuilder')
loSbPath.Append("/v1/payments/authorization/authorization_id/capture")
lnNumReplaced = loSbPath.Replace("authorization_id","6HG91590AX913463C")

* Send the POST request containing the JSON in the request body, and get the JSON response.
