Hi Russ,
Thank you for the quick feedback. Apparently, the issue was that I was not logging into my paypal account with my password and only using a one-time code sent to my cellphone for login. Paypal kept asking me to login each time I tried to view my saved buttons. I finally entered in my password into PayPal and the paypal code generated as expected. I can't wait to get my project setup and thanks for your help.
BTW, is there a venmo integration similar to PayPal?
Thanks,

I was trying to follow the post on setting up paypal integration with raspberry pi using the below guide.

I was able to get through most of the code but could not find the "hosted button id" in the code that paypal generated for me so that i can enter it into the paywall on triggercmd. Can someone please tell me why paypal is not generating the hosted button id?
