v2/vault/payment-tokens API 403 Forbidden Error.

Hello PayPal Community,

I am testing the v2/vault/payment-tokens API in the sandbox environment, but I am encountering a 403 error with the message:
"issue": "NOT_ENABLED_FOR_VAULT_SOURCE",
"description": "The API caller or the merchant on whose behalf the API call is initiated is not allowed to vault the given source."
Can you help me with this?"

 

"Do I need to be in one of the countries listed under the 'Availability' section on this page to use this API?

For reference, my sandbox account country is Korea."

Hi @raycpt ,

Thank you for providing the merchant ID and debug ID.

I have successfully added the required scopes to the REST API App(Client ID), associated with the provided sandbox account merchant ID & debug ID.

 

I would suggest to perform a test API request call now.

If you still having issues or queries, please create an MTS ticket via -  https://www.paypal-support.com/s/?language=en_US with detailed information.

 

Thank you so much for your patience and understanding.

 

Sincerely,

Chiranjeevi

hank you for your response. Here is the information you requested.

 

I am still experiencing the same issue.

Does the account region matter at all?

I want to know if the account region needs to be included in the Availability section of this page in order to use it:

[PayPal Payment Tokens API - Cards](https://developer.paypal.com/docs/checkout/save-payment-methods/purchase-later/payment-tokens-api/ca...).
