Unauthorized for my own data?

When using the clientID and clientSecret for my own company, I get a 401 Unauthorized error.  We do not wish to create a product to access any data except our own.  Do I need to fill out the form here https://www.paypal.com/us/webapps/mpp/partner-program/contact-us?_ga=1.30575039.1267232671.161711147... to access data from only our own transactions.  

 

Thanks for your time and effort.

Good day @BJScharf,

 

Thank you for contacting PayPal community.

 

Our sincere apologies for the inconvenience caused.

 

Live credentials are only available to approved marketplaces and platforms.

 

If you are interested in becoming an approved marketplace or platform, fill out the PayPal Marketplaces and Platforms form. Without this approval, calling the PayPal Commerce Platform for Marketplaces and Platforms APIs with your live credentials results in the HTTP status code of 401 Unauthorized.

 

Calling the PayPal Commerce Platform for Marketplaces and Platforms APIs with your sandbox credentials does not require approval.

 

Thank you so much for your patience and understanding.

 

Sincerely,

Chiranjeevi

PayPal/Braintree MTS
