New to Zapier, folks. Sorry for the newbie question. I am having trouble navigating Zapier to learn how create a Zap that, when a payment is made to my PayPal account that triggers a new Other Income event in my Freshbooks account.
The specific challenge is that I don’t know how to get Zapier to login to my PayPal account. Has anyone met this challenge and defeated it?

thanks, Ken! this is what I did so that is good. the piece that was most helpful was that the instructions mention it won't return results for previous orders, so i will either test an order or wait for a real one.
It is odd to me though that I don’t see any reference within PayPal to the webhook requests. Is that normal? Wouldn’t PayPal know of the Zap and ask me to confirm its legitimacy?
Grateful, Brian
