Hello @SandepSoni ,

Thank you for posting to the Sandbox Merchant Community. I have added the future payments scope to your sandbox rest api app associated with the debug id provided.

Thank you,

Hello @MTS_Jennifer I have the same issue as well, debugId 2e30b5d6a2d23

Would it be possible to have those scopes added?

Thank you!

Hello @RobertZ007 ,

Thank you for contributing to this post. Per your request, I have enabled all Future Payments Scopes on your Sandbox Rest API App.

Hi @MTS_Jennifer,

I am getting authentication error when trying to view  authorization request in my  Paypal sandbox environment.

Error message: "Authorization failed due to insufficient permissions"

I would need Reference Transactions/ Future Payments scopes to be added to my Sandbox Rest API app/account.

Please can I get some help to resolve this issue.

Hello @tolowoye 

Thank you for contributing to this post. It looks like your issue is related to transaction search api.

Can you please ensure that your Rest API app has permission to run these api calls?

Here's how:

• Log into the developer dashboard at https://developer.paypal.com
• Go to Apps & Credentials
• Click on your Rest Api app
• Click on the box next to Transaction search
• Save changes

If you have done this and are still not able to run transaction search api, please provide the merchant id for the sandbox account.

Thank you,

Jennifer
