PayPal sandbox doesn't work - paypal

I'm newbie in PayPal.
I've got the issue to integrate PayPal into mobile app. So there's in my dev account I see myLiveApp application. When I choose it and choose the sandbox I see "Something went wrong while fetching the sandbox application details. Please try again.You can still access the Live application details".
What does it mean? What I got to do for testing my payments in my application?

As a test environment, sandbox is not always so stable :( Could you please try clear the browser's cookies and try again ?

You will have to wait like me too, I have the same issue. Your best bet is to wait and see if any changes occur, that's the best answer I can give you.

Having trouble completing paypal payin3 transaction

I have integrated paypal payin3 (paylater) option on my website. I am testing it on sandbox when I try to complete the process at the end it shows an error which I am not able to fix despite I spent many hours to fix it. Anyone has an idea how to fix it. see the below image
Appears to be a sandbox problem. If the PayPal page is opening normally and regular PayPal payments work (not selecting Pay in 3), then there's nothing more you need to do.

Creating sandbox test payments in Shopify with PayPal?

Is there a way to test paypal transactions in shopify development?
I have tried adding sandbox emails but it keeps giving me Some of your info isn't correct. Please try again. --- I have updated the passwords to ensure everything is correct. I assume Shopify is not allowing this?
Is there a way to integrate paypal sandbox?
It's important that it is PayPal and not credit cards in general.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Really not trying to use real money for a few simple tests as it seems Shopify is suggesting here: https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/payments/paypal/set-up-paypal#testing-paypal
It doesn't seem Shopify offers the option to turn on sandbox mode, probably because it's unnecessary and confusing for most of their users.
Shopify has already done all the integration with PayPal, there is no need to test anything repeatedly. Just make sure it's working before launch.

Sandbox Not Working

I keep getting the following from PayPal sandbox when needing to make an Adaptive payment:
We can't process your payment right now, so please try again later. We're sorry for the inconvenience.
Is the sandbox having issues again?
It may caused by unstable Sandbox environment. Please try again or you can try on live site.

Paypal Express Checkout for Digital Goods hangs when login is popup

I have been testing Paypal integration - on Sandbox - for a number of days and have found that, when the Paypal login is presented in a browser, everything is fine; However when the login environment changes to a popup/lightbox, the browser hangs and remains on 'loading' after a successful test payment has gone through.
I used PayPal integration wizard to generate the code and then amended it accordingly. Any advice would be greatly appreciated as it's doing my head in!
I have seen this issue occur several times lately, as well as reported by a few of my customers. While I can't provide a definitive solution, I have had success with one or more of the following:
Clear the browser cacher. Shutdown and restart the browser.
Login to standard PayPal site, logout and restart browser.
Try a different browser to help identify whether there is something going on with that specific browser.
Switch between sandbox, live, and back to sandbox mode. This may require a repeat of step #1.
Contact Paypal customer support.
I typically resolve the problem before getting to #4, hopefully you will as well. Best of luck!

I can log on to the PayPal Sandbox test account but can not get into Profile or Settings

I was unable to log on to my PayPal developer account until I deleted the PayPal cookies from Chrome. This allowed me to log on but clicking on Profile or Settings within the Profile drop-down results in an error page saying "Please login to use the PayPal Sandbox features".
Logging in again did not help. Creating a new account (buyer or seller) did not help either.
This is in the new Sandbox environment.
Strange as it may seem, deleting your developer.paypal.com should resolve this.
The reason for this is that you've got cookies from the old developer portal in place which interferes with the new portal / sandbox environment.
After you've deleted all your cookies / all your paypal.com cookies, you should be able to login to the new developer portal and access any sandbox accounts without any issue.
A fix for this is going out shortly.
If anyone is still having problems accessing their My Profile (other than My business info) in the sandbox (i only get the perpetual loading animation) - then just use this link:

Paypal sandbox is generally broken for everyone, seeing a lot of people complaining about it. It was ropey at best before, seems to have truly died now.
