#### JavaScript/Node.js Example for API Integration
Here's how you can implement the PayPal subscription button using JavaScript:

paypal.Buttons({
createSubscription: function(data, actions) {
return actions.subscription.create({
'plan_id': 'P-XXXXXXXXXX' // Your PayPal Plan ID
});
},
onApprove: function(data, actions) {
alert('Subscription completed!');
}
}).render('#paypal-button');
```

### Step 4: Test Your Integration
Use PayPal's sandbox environment to test your subscription flow before going live.

```bash
curl -X POST https://api.sandbox.paypal.com/v1/billing/subscriptions \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \

-d '{
"plan_id": "P-XXXXXXXXXX"
