I was using the EmployeeAPI till now, but now I see that it’s deprecated. Where can I get the information about the employee/team member who captured the payment? using PaymentsAPI/OrdersAPI.

👋 The `employee_id` will be in the `payment object` from the Payments API if the employee entered their passcode and completed the payment in the POS. 🙂

Thank you for your response. So the employee\_id in the payment object is null but I do see the Employee details when I export the Transactions. Any way I can get that info through the API?

Looking at the payment `3dN09JE3TsXB8lvAsrR5ONCeuaB `I do see that the `employee_id` is included in the response from the [GetPayment](https://developer.squareup.com/reference/square/payments-api/get-payment) request. 🙂
