Getting an error when calling API endpoint for Create Billing Agreement Token V1

[joseph_funraise]

I saw that in related questions you need a new permission added to get the V1 Billing Agreement Token endpoint to work.

Here's the response I'm getting now:

{
  "name": "BUSINESS_ERROR",
  "debug_id": "f2a9d5cbece00",
  "message": "Business error",
  "information_link": "https://developer.paypal.com/webapps/developer/docs/api/#BUSINESS_ERROR",
  "details": [

      "message": "Authorization failed due to insufficient permissions. Invalid Scopes"
    }
  ]
}

Hi @MTS_Jennifer,

I'm unfortunately still getting this error

{

"name": "BUSINESS_ERROR",

"debug_id": "7696e5d46c375",

"message": "Business error",

"information_link": "https: //developer.paypal.com/webapps/developer/docs/api/#BUSINESS_ERROR",

"details": [

  {

    "name": "UNAUTHORISED ACCESS",

    "message": "Authorization failed due to insufficient permissions. Invalid Scopes"

  }

 ]

}

This is the endpoint that I'm trying to call: /v1/billing-agreements/agreement-tokens

Hello @joseph_funraise 

Thank you for contributing to this post. Try this api call with your access_token:

POST to https://api.sandbox.paypal.com/v1/billing-agreements/agreement-tokens
{
  "description": "Billing Agreement",
  "currency_code" : "USD",
 
  "payer":
  {
    "payment_method": "PAYPAL"

  },
  "plan":
  {
    "type": "MERCHANT_INITIATED_BILLING",
    "merchant_preferences":
    {
      "return_url": "https://example.com/return",
      "cancel_url": "https://example.com/cancel",
      "notify_url": "https://example.com/notify",
      "accepted_pymt_type": "INSTANT",
      "skip_shipping_address": true
     
     
    }
  }
}

 Let me know if you receive the same message.

Thank you,

Hi @joseph_funraise ,

Good day!

I understand that you are trying to integrate PayPal Reference Transaction via REST API, which is a limited release.

I would suggest to please create a MTS ticket via - https://www.paypal-support.com/s/?language=en_US  with the detail error details, to debug further.

Thank you.
