Good day @liufengsheng 

Thank you for posting to the PayPal community.

I understand that you are currently encountering an error with your API request. This type of error usually arises when there are problems with the formatting of the API request, as it may not adhere to the necessary standards.

To resolve this issue, I kindly suggest to review your "Create Order" API request payload and make sure your passing valid request to PayPal system. Please refer the guide link below for further assistance:
