I created an app on PayPal with sandbox account. Then i picked up its API Client id and Secret. I created a new console application and added paypal nuget package version 1.9.1.
internal class Program { static void Main(string[] args) { // Get a reference to the config var config = ConfigManager.Instance.GetProperties(); // Use OAuthTokenCredential to request an access token from PayPal var accessToken = new OAuthTokenCredential(config["clientId"], config["clientSecret"]); var apiContext = new APIContext(accessToken.GetAccessToken()); try { var payment = new Payment() { intent = "authorize", // A resource representing a Payer that funds a payment. Use the List of `FundingInstrument` and the Payment Method as 'credit_card' payer = new Payer() { // The Payment creation API requires a list of // FundingInstrument; add the created `FundingInstrument` // to a List funding_instruments = new List<FundingInstrument>() { // A resource representing a Payeer's funding instrument. // Use a Payer ID (A unique identifier of the payer generated // and provided by the facilitator. This is required when // creating or using a tokenized funding instrument) // and the `CreditCardDetails` new FundingInstrument() { // A resource representing a credit card that can be used to fund a payment. credit_card = new CreditCard() { billing_address = new Address() { city = "Johnstown", country_code = "US", line1 = "52 N Main ST", postal_code = "43210", state = "OH" }, cvv2 = "874", expire_month = 11, expire_year = 2023, first_name = "Joe", last_name = "Shopper", number = "5105105105105100", type = "visa" } } }, payment_method = "credit_card" }, // The Payment creation API requires a list of transactions; add the created `Transaction` to a List transactions = new List<Transaction>() { // A transaction defines the contract of a payment - what is the payment for and who is fulfilling it. Transaction is created with a `Payee` and `Amount` types new Transaction() { // Let's you specify a payment amount. amount = new Amount() { currency = "USD", // Total must be equal to sum of shipping, tax and subtotal. total = "107.47", details = new Details() { shipping = "0.03", subtotal = "107.41", tax = "0.03" } }, description = "This is the payment transaction description." } }, payee = new Payee { email = "email-address" } }; var createdPayment = payment.Create(apiContext); } catch (Exception ex) { throw; } } }
Using the code above i get the error mentioned below.
{"name":"VALIDATION_ERROR","message":"Invalid request - see details","debug_id":"f3c178cb2a17b","details":[{"field":"/payee","location":"body","issue":"MALFORMED_REQUEST_JSON"}],"links":[]}
is there anything i am doing wrong ?
i tried adding more information to Payee for example its account merchand_id and stuff but didnt worked.
i am expecting the exception to be resolved.
