To enable get sandbox API keys to follow this:
- Click here to log in to your developer.PayPal.com account.
- At the top of the page, click Dashboard.
- Under Sandbox on the left side of the page, click Accounts.
- Click the email address for the account 
- Note: Only Business accounts can have Pro enabled.
- Under the email address, click Profile.
- Click the check for the Sandbox API keys

For your LIVE API keys, you should check your PayPal account > https://www.paypal.com/businessmanage/credentials/apiaccess.

Here you can create API details as per your need.

 

Thanks!

All I can get to is the Certificate which lets me download the private key and certificate but I need the signature.  I believe I have found the password and username but can't find the signature anywhere.

Hi @gotbaseball 
You are only able to have either an API Certificate or an API Signature at any given moment. If you are seeing an API Certificate, you will need to revoke that certificate in order to request a Signature.

 

Please be aware that if you revoke a certificate it will break any current integration that is using that certificate. Please make sure that you do not need the certificate before revoking.
