Item Description on Paypal Checkout 3rd Party Shopping Cart

I'm using a 3rd party shopping cart and i notice that there is no variable for the item description. Any ideas on what variable on how to show or add the item description on the paypal checkout? I already checked the variables to be used on Passing Individual Items to PayPal. Is there anyway to show the item description using a 3rd party shopping cart? Thanks.

With PayPal Standard Payments (the HTML form button code), there's no tag/variable specific for "description", instead, you would be able to customize your item (besides item_name) with the following tags:

<input type="hidden" name="on0" value="Label">
<input type="hidden" name="os0" value="Selection Value">

The tags set will be displayed on the line item area as Options: Label: Selection Value as below

enter image description here

If you need the exact "Item Description" field, you would need to integrate with Express Checkout API and work with parameter L_PAYMENTREQUEST_n_DESCm, see further details on the API reference
