Hi there,

I have a similar issue with my sandbox account merchand id CKTV49LXSKMM2 with calculated-financing-options

debugid f778741a63343

Please can I have access added to my account?

Moving forward, is there a way I can add any future permissions myself?

Thanks!

Hello @Arkath878 ,

Thank you for contributing to this post. I have enabled Future Payments Scopes to your sandbox rest api app.

The Future Payments Scopes are only needed for Vault and Reference Transactions. At some point we will have these scopes added at the time of app creation. 

Thank you,

Jennifer

Hi Jennifer,

Thanks for the update however I am still having an issue with /credit/calculated-financing-options endpoint. We are not able to request finance options for products without this access and it is causing issues with our test environment so would be great to get it resolved.

Are you able to add access to my sandbox account for this please?

Thank you

Hi @Arkath878,

Good day!

I have added the required scopes. Please perform a new API call via the sandbox test environment.

Have a great day.
