Why is there API call to create order but no sending the capture call through POST API?

[chrisj]

Merchant Technical support tells me "there isn’t any addition API call after the order was created" via my php web site/script.

My problem is that the web developer, of the (popular) web script, tells me the web script is working successfully with Paypal, and he even sent me a screen shot video showing that the web script and Paypal works successfully together.

And I am using the his same web script, and have just re-installed it today, but no change in this Paypal issue.

So, I'm really stuck. 

So, my question is, can you PLEASE think about what else might cause "there isn’t any addition API call after the order was created"?

Anything?

Could it be the Paypal Client ID & Secret Key? Could it be a web server permission issue? 

Your Paypal expertise ideas/brainstorming help is greatly, greatly appreciated.

I look forward to your suggestions/solutions.

Good day @chrisj,

Thank you for posting to the PayPal community.

Merchants should perform Create Order API(https://developer.paypal.com/docs/api/orders/v2/#orders_create) call and then redirect the customer/buyer to "approve" URL.

Once the order is approved by the customer/buyer, merchant should perform Capture Order (https://developer.paypal.com/docs/api/orders/v2/#orders_capture) API call.

If your still facing any issues, please create a MTS ticket via -  https://www.paypal-support.com/s/?language=en_US with the detail information and error details.

Sincerely,

Chiranjeevi
