Testing the PayPal Adaptive Paymemts API in the Sandbox

I want to simulate a simple scenario with the adaptive API. A seller, buyer and my app. I created 3 test accounts in the Sandbox website:

Account named buyer - of type Personal.

Account named seller - of type Business.

Account named myApp - of type Business.

I am using the Adaptive Payments C#.Net code samples from paypal developers site. (The code I am using is inside csharp_nv_adaptivepayments.zip , in the Pay.cs file).

I changed sAPIUser, sAPIPassword, sAPISignature to match myApp (From API Credentialns page in SandBox site)

I changed sReceiverEmail to the seller email.

I changed sSenderEmail to the buyer email.

After sending the request to https://svcs.sandbox.paypal.com/AdaptivePayments/Pay , and getting the response with sResponse = oStreamReader.ReadToEnd(); I get an OK status and I have a payKey in my hand.

Now, as the AdaptivePayments PDF says (P. 70) I need to redirect the user to https://www.paypal.com/webscr?cmd=_ap-payment&paykey=value , So I use Response.Redirect() to this url. When the browser loads the page, I get a java script error in: var sf = new PAYPAL.AP.Subflow(); Stating that "Object doesn't support this action".

I tried to change the url to http://www.sanbox.paypal....paykey=value but then I just get a white page , saying "Please login to use the PayPal Sandbox features." Also, in both cases i didn't see 开发者_C百科any payment activity in the seller,buyer logs. What am I doing wrong here ?

Yaron,

To make Live API calls, you need to obtain a Live APP ID from PayPal, For making sandbox calls, you need to properly set up the sandbox testing environment, AND be logged in to it beforehand.
