PayPal REST Donation API

Question

I'm trying to create a custom form with the ability to process direct credit card donations, as well as donations to my PayPal account, as well as the ability to choose whether the amount paid is a regular monthly donation or a one-time donation. I cannot find documentation anywhere on how to use the Paypal REST API for donations. It seems that there is no type of intention for donations anywhere or any option for monthly or one-time payments. Does anyone have any experience? I understand how the commercial payment API works, but I'm not sure what parameters need to be changed for donations.

The easiest way is to add Buy Now to your site. This is simple HTML code, no server code required. When someone has donated, you will receive an email with detailed information, including the payment amount and donor email. Therefore, you can answer him “Thank you” :) Please note that in some countries you must verify your PayPal account before accepting payments. You can do this in the View Constraints menu.
