Setting up paypal payflow pro on magento 2 in sandbox mode

[cmartin5523]

Hi,

I'm trying to setup paypal payflow pro on magento 2 but it seems that after I checkout I get the following error: 'Invalid vendor account'.  I searched and found that this is basically a credential error.  I am in sandbox mode and it works fine for paypal express.  Can someone let me know if I should be putting sandbox value or real paypal values in the fields for:

Email Associated with PayPal Merchant Account

User

Vendor

Password

Also, is the 'User' the actual user id that is used to login to paypal?

Is the 'Vendor' same as merchant id#?

Is 'Password' the same password to login into paypal?

Hello,

If you are using a live account and using your own credit card you can receive declined payments, since paying yourself is considered cash advancing, which is a restricted activity.

Here is more information on this specific error code:
