As per Paypal Doc's matchCriteria can be NONE only for for certain financial institutions, what does it mean ?
With sending firstName & lastName empty values and matchCriteria as NONE in sandbox environment I'm getting expected response from API call, will this also work in live environment too ? I want to know this before moving my code to production and I didn't found clear information regarding this on doc's.
You will have to create a business application requesting this service to PayPal so they can grant you access. PayPal reviews the different services you are requesting and grants an APP-ID that can be used for API calls. matchCriteria=NONE is an advanced permission.

I'm building an application that resembles personal financing. For that, I need to fetch information about that customer's transactions.
I managed to run the GetBasicPersonalData example within the permissions service.
Here it says that requesting TRANSACTION_SEARCH will allow me to use TransactionSearch on behalf of the customer.
There is no such endpoint and calling the NVP service with METHOD=TransactionSearch and similarly constructed X-PAYPAL-AUTHORIZATION header doesn't do it either.
How can I use the token and token secret retrieved from the permissions service to list that customer's transactions?
Update: According to FAQ#6 here, the X-PAYPAL-AUTHORIZATION is supposed to be used to replace the USER, PWD, and SIGNATURE params. When I call the nvp service that way I get:
TIMESTAMP=2016%2d11%2d07T15%3a35%3a36Z&CORRELATIONID=f50b7296c2d28&ACK=Failure&VERSION=94%2e0&BUILD=24616352&L_ERRORCODE0=10002&L_SHORTMESSAGE0=Authentication%2fAuthorization%20Failed&L_LONGMESSAGE0=You%20do%20not%20have%20permissions%20to%20make%20this%20API%20call&L_SEVERITYCODE0=Error
I'd like to share below useful documents for your reference:
TransactionSearch API guide here;
TransactionSearch API reference here;
PayPal API Endpoint here(Refere Merchant APIs);
I am essentially trying to get the details of any transaction ID in my PayPal account to authenticate users I am migrating to a new authentication system.
I am using the PayPal Rest API so: http://puu.sh/gdb3T/461dde2928.png and yes I have checked everything is fine, it is infact set to live with the correct id / secret.
This isn't exactly an answer to this specific question, but I have simply fixed it by using PayPal's classic API in order to get the job done.
Kind of strange the rest API doesn't let me do this.
We're using Paypal's REST API and we'd like to pre-fill the customer's data (email, name, address) on the approval's page.
There is a payer_info object that can passed to Paypal when the payment is created. But it does not allow specifying customer's details - email field is not supported and others are read-only. Also I don't see any mentions in the API docs on how to achieve this with the REST API. Do you know if it's possible and how? If it's not supported, is it known when it's gonna be supported?
Thanks in advance.
Even when using PayPal REST API you can follow these instructions https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_pdn_xclick_prepopulate_outside and append the params as GET params on the end of the aproval_url before redirect the customer.
For example:
https://www.sandbox.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_express-checkout&token=EC-77D44712W7736393M&first_name=Geovanny&last_name=Junio
I am implementing espn api, but having some issue, most api gives me this response.
{"timestamp" :"2013-02-25T11:19:02Z","message" :"This action is forbidden for the requested resource at your permission level. Please review the documentation for account level access.","status" :"error","code" :403}
I am using this api Espn MLB Standing
I want to know that where to review the documentation, i is there any need to purchase some api or anything else?
[EDIT]
One more thing there is ?apikey=:yourkey , so this key is same for all user or we have to get this according to user login.
I think you are using the wrong apikey or there is some issue in your URL query.
Your app will have a unique apikey. This key is same for all users who are using the app.
You should get a apikey by registering to their site and use it for development purpose.
My rep doesn't allowing commenting, but I thought I'd add the following here:
A small amount of ESPN API data is free, but much requires payment.
You probably don't want to publicly share your personal API key for security reasons.
Go to http://developer.espn.com/io-docs and plug in your API key and use the GUI to generate an API call/response. It's a good way to see a valid, working syntax that you can then drop into your app and edit as necessary.
I just set up our first live merchant on Balanced Payments and am looking to credit them. In the account creation process, I received the redirect request in my code, I followed that.
I entered in the merchant data and account information, and was successfully redirected back to my site with the account URI and email.
I can successfully retrieve the account via the API, but I do not see it listed in the accounts list page on my balanced dashboard. Is there possibly some lag time before a new live merchant account would show up?
When Balanced creates a merchant for you via the KYC process, you're not passing any authentication information to the API which means Balanced does not have the ability to create objects within your account. This is important to note because:
Balanced will create a Merchant which represents an identity within the Balanced system (this identity is not associated to any particular marketplace), but it doesn't create the actual Account on your marketplace.
The documentation notes that it is the URI of this Merchant which is returned to you, however you will need to then use this identity to create an Account within your marketplace. You are able to do this as you have an API key to authenticate the request.
Here is an example of creating the account using the Balanced Ruby client:
# URL looks like https://yoursite.com/kyc/complete?email_address=merchant#exam
# ple.org&merchant_uri=/v1/merchants/MR3KJZgnQcg8OX8FrTWlRszn
merchant_uri = params[:merchant_uri] # alter to your framework for GET params
email_address = params[:email_address]
merchant = Balanced::Marketplace.my_marketplace.create_merchant(
email_address,
merchant_uri
)
