I'm having problems capturing Paypal payment through DoExpressCheckoutPayment method. Paypal failed and returned with only one 10004 error which said
Transaction refused because of an invalid argument. See additional error messages for details.
However, Paypal did not specify which argument was invalid.
Is there a way to request Paypal to provide more details in this case?
Below are arguments which I post to Paypal using the NVP API.

Update: For the record, the problem resolved itself after a few days. This must be an issue with Paypal internal engine. Still, we ended up moving away from Paypal after this incident.

I am using PayPal Express checkout for payment. I need the SALUTATION of the user along with other shipping details. But it seems that only FIRSTNAME and LASTNAME are got from the response. What should be done to get the SALUTATION in the response as well.

In PayPal documentation they say it is available in response.
see here
Its a simple problem. I was using the merchant account for US region. And the US region does not need the SALUTATION part for their address. That was why the response was not returning the salutation part i guess.
I'm using PayPal Express Checkout on a sandbox account, and i'm trying to link up the Unique Transaction ID on the "customer" paypal site with the completed transaction via Express Checkout.

But the customer site says:
PayPal Express Checkout Payment Sent (Unique Transaction ID 7PK53077PJ222701T)
Oh..the (painful) memories :) That aforementioned "oddity" also exists elsewhere - e.g. eBay transactions
IINM, you'll need to send your own "custom ID" - the Invoice Id mentioned above (which is displayed to the end user) so both ends have some visual reference to a transaction.
In the REST API (unsure in Classic, haven't tried), if you send an Order, the Order Number (finally) is shared on both ends (same for both). Though it wouldn't hurt to still send your own "custom Id"/"Invoice Id".

Hth...
I need some helps regarding to Paypal express checkout. Here is my case
- I can do: SetExpressCheckout, DoExpressCheckout successfully
- But I was unable to DoCapture to capture authorized amount. And here is the error "10002 Security header is not valid". Noted that this only happen on live mode, it worked fine in sandbox mode.
Please help. thanks Thanh
After doing DoExpressCheckoutPayment get the authorizationID and use it in DoCapture

Reference : https://developer.paypal.com/docs/classic/express-checkout/ht_ec-singleAuthPayment-curl-etc/
I user PayPal's Express Checkout API to make an parallel Payment. Everything works fine, on the payee site, the 2 payments are booked as "open".
While DoExpressCheckoutPayment I get an transaction id for each payment. But a doCapture fails with "You%20do%20not%20have%20permissions%20to%20make%20this%20API%20call". A single authorized payment that I made several weeks ago but have never captured gives me just "Order%20has%20expired%2e" - which is fine.
I use the following parameters for the NVP API:
$parameters = array("METHOD"=>"DoCapture",
"AUTHORIZATIONID"=>$transactionid_item,
"AMT"=>$amt_item,
"CURRENCYCODE"=>$currencycode,
"COMPLETETYPE"=>"Complete"
);
when of course the variable are the corresponding values to each payment. (plus authentication/api credential).
What am I doing wrong? Is there an additional variable to set when I make a parallel instead of an single payment?
regards,
chris

It looks like you are running your Express Checkout API call as an order, then you are turning around and doing a DoCapture request but you are passing over the order id for the auth id instead of the authorization id. If you are wanting to set your Express Checkout to be an order instead of an auth or a sale, then you need to perform the calls in the following ways.
SetExpressCheckout API call (processing as order)
GetExpressCheckoutDetail API Call
DoExpressCheckoutPayment API Call (processing as order)
DoAuthorization (performs an auth, and passes over the order id that you received from the EC flow)
DoCapture (performs a capture against the auth, you will pass over the auth id that was returned in the previous call here, not the order id)
I do not know if the issue is in code or the paypal account settings. Paypal displays correctly the shipping cost, it displays the correct total (item price + shipping),
but in fact, the transactions includes only the item price, not the shipping costs.
I have been unable to find out what is wrong. if paypal can display it correctly, why cant it include it properly in the transaction ?
here is the request sent to paypal:
$padata = '&CURRENCYCODE='.urlencode($PayPalCurrencyCode).
'&PAYMENTACTION=Sale'.
'&ALLOWNOTE=1'.
'&PAYMENTREQUEST_0_CURRENCYCODE='.urlencode($PayPalCurrencyCode).
'&PAYMENTREQUEST_0_AMT='.urlencode($TotalPrice).
'&PAYMENTREQUEST_0_ITEMAMT='.urlencode($ItemTotalPrice).
'&L_PAYMENTREQUEST_0_QTY0='. urlencode($ItemQty).
'&L_PAYMENTREQUEST_0_AMT0='.urlencode($ItemPrice).
'&PAYMENTREQUEST_0_SHIPPINGAMT='.urlencode($deliveryCost).
'&L_PAYMENTREQUEST_0_NAME0='.urlencode($ItemName).
'&L_PAYMENTREQUEST_0_NUMBER0='.urlencode($ItemNumber).
'&AMT='.urlencode($ItemTotalPrice).
'&RETURNURL='.urlencode($PayPalReturnURL ).
'&CANCELURL='.urlencode($PayPalCancelURL);
The param for shipping that I used is :
PAYMENTREQUEST_0_SHIPPINGAMT
is it correct ? is a complementary one needed ?
Are you supplying all of your PAYMENTREQUEST_0_* and L_PAYMENTREQUEST_0_* variables in your DoExpressCheckoutPayment call as well as your SetExpressCheckout call?
SetExpressCheckout will control what the buyer sees when they go to check out on PayPal. DoExpressCheckoutPayment will control what the buyer is actually charged for. Therefore, if you want your shipping charge to be included in the transaction, you need to make sure that it's included in both calls.
for the records, correct params for DoExpressCheckoutPayment :
$padata = '&TOKEN='.urlencode($token).
'&PAYERID='.urlencode($playerid).
'&PAYMENTACTION='.urlencode("SALE").
'&PAYMENTREQUEST_0_CURRENCYCODE='.urlencode($PayPalCurrencyCode).
'&PAYMENTREQUEST_0_SHIPPINGAMT='.urlencode($deliveryCost).
'&PAYMENTREQUEST_0_AMT='.urlencode($TotalPrice).
'&PAYMENTREQUEST_0_ITEMAMT='.urlencode($ItemTotalPrice).
'&CURRENCYCODE='.urlencode($PayPalCurrencyCode);
