Hi, we also have the same problem. Do you need to create the payment with the API v1? Creating it with the v2 and getting the info with the v1 doesn't show the payer.status for me. ... View more

Thanks Aaron!   That is unfortunate. I still think that exposing 'test API' calls would be beneficial for developers, specially for programmatically executing buyer side actions. I am not sure I understand the security risk that exists in the sandbox, as it is supposed to be a test environment. The API docs right now don't mention anything about this limitation either.   It is hard to write an integration test with the current API, which many could benefit to keep their apps healthy (I don't want my app to break and my payments to not work!). I have created an alternative using Python and Selenium to execute the payment in the SandBox. If you think that is OK I can share it on GitHub publicly for others that need this as well.   Best regards ... View more

Hi,   I can't find this info on the PayPal docs. I am currently creating an order with the 'https://api.sandbox.paypal.com/v2/checkout/orders' request. Then the order stays at the 'CREATED' status. How can I approve the request at the sandbox buyer side without having to manually log in into the buyer in a browser? In other words, how can I execute a HTTP request (say with cURL) to change my test order to the 'APPROVED' status?   Thanks in advance ... View more
