Importer doesn't work with Paypal Payments or Checkout plugin

[jayscentco]

We have subs with paypal billing agreements from an old site (cratejoy), that we're trying to migrate onto our woocom site. Our paypal account has reference transactions enabled.

It seems the paypal payments plugin has different data requiements to what is written in this guide. Due to vaulting it seems to need a paypal payment_token_id.

In the woocom guides it says this new paypal plugin has a migrate layer that can migrate paypal subscriptinos from the old paypal checkout plugin. So we tried using your plugin to import them into the old paypal checkout plugin first. That failed as well. The error we got is:

So maybe paypal checkout has stopped working and we can't input data in there?

Another question is, is there a way to generate payment token ids from billing agreements. As perhaps that migration could work?

@jayscentco We're experiencing a similar challenge. Did you ever solve this?

We went through PayPal Braintree and other testing to determine this isn't possible. So we couldn't migrate.
We're letting them churn out and encouraging to move site.
