Hello,

We're aware of this issue and our developers are currently investigating.

If you want a sandbox account linked to your developer account, please share the merchant id for both accounts and I can manually link them.

Once the issue has been resolved, I'll post back in this thread.

Apologies for any inconvenience.

Thanks !

@MTS_Justin Thanks for your response, I am trying to test Paypal checkout "Advanced Integration" paypal.HostedFields but, `paypal.HostedFields.isEligible()` is returning false in Sandbox mode. 

Here is my

PayPal Merchant ID for my live account: <Removed> 

PayPal Merchant ID for my sandbox account: <Removed>

and here is the sandbox test business account id: <Removed>

Please let me know if I need anything else for testing Paypal checkout Advanced Integration

 

Thanks for your help

Hello,

Thanks for sharing the merchant id's for your accounts. I've successfully linked your sandbox account to your developer account and it should now show in your account list in PayPal developer.

In regards to hosted fields, you need to apply for it for your sandbox account through the link provided on this page : https://developer.paypal.com/docs/business/checkout/advanced-card-payments/integrate#1-enable-your-a...

Thanks !

@MTS_Justin  thanks for linking my accounts, I followed the instruction to request advanced debit and credit processing, everything seems to go fine without any errors, but I am still getting false when calling `paypal.HostedFields.isEligible()`. Could you please help me resolve this?

Thanks in advance

@MTS_Justin I tried requesting processing permissions for AZLU6ASCFHUGA account id, which is listed as a business account under my Sandbox accounts, but I am still getting the false return when calling `paypal.HostedFields.isEligible()`. Could you please help
