Can't see the transactions in sandbox accounts

I'm using .NET SDK to communicate to PayPal Rest API directly, I've followed the tutorials and I managed to get the transaction created ( according to the created payment object ) but when I log on to the developer dashboard I don't see any notifications and also I don't see any transactions when I log on to sandbox accounts ( the business and personal )

I've set the payer information as well as the payee information using the sandbox accounts I created like the following:

 The payer object is a member of the payment object

The payee object is a member of the transaction list object that contains the items list along with amount etc.

I've used the wiki and sample source code as my reference on how to do it.

 

Any help is appreciated

It sounds like maybe you're creating a transaction but you aren't finalizing / executing it.  Tough to say without knowing exactly which APIs you're using.  Can you post a sample of your API requests and responses for the flow you've got in place?

Hi, yes it looks like you are only creating the payment and not executing it. Just to be sure I post the whole procedure for a payment creation in REST (replace live or sandbox endpoints at your convenience):

https://developer.paypal.com/docs/integration/direct/make-your-first-call/#make-an-api-call
       > get an access token: https://developer.paypal.com/docs/integration/direct/make-your-first-call/#get-an-access-token
       > create a payment with https://api.paypal.com/v1/payments/payment passing the access token
       > you get a payment_id
       > execute the payment with /v1/payments/payment/<your_payment_id>/execute

You can find at these links the guide with more details:
