For setting up the API, you need to execute the following steps:

* Installing an extension&#x20;
* Run the application&#x20;
* Make the build

**Step 1 : Installing an extension**

&#x20;These are the steps that need to be executed for installation of the extension.

Usually spurcommerce comes packed in a zip, whose name ends in "<mark style="color:green;">**paypal-addOn.zip**</mark>".

Extract the zip file, open api folder and open addon folder within that and copy the content of addon folder into the specified path.

&#x20;                               **Path - \<PROJECT\_ROOT>/add-ons/Payment/**

**Step 2 : Run the application**&#x20;

After you have completed the installation of the above mentioned steps, you can run the application and also view the changes.

```
$ npm start serve 
```

Once you execute the above command, add-on file will get integrated into the backend API.

**Step 3 : Make the build**&#x20;

These are the steps that need to be followed for generating the build.

```
$ npm run build
```

Then latest built files can be deployed into the server.
