Question

I'm sending userid and password from this page: https://www.paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_profile-api-signature

And the AppId is the ID I use in my android app to create payments: https://apps.paypal.com/user/my-account/applications

I'm using the follow function:

function verify_paypal($payKey, $appID)
{
  global $payPalUser_Id, $payPalPassword, $payPalSig;
$headerArray = array(
'X-PAYPAL-SECURITY-USERID:'.$payPalUser_Id,
'X-PAYPAL-SECURITY-PASSWORD:'.$payPalPassword,
'X-PAYPAL-SECURITY-SIGNATURE:'.$payPalSig,
'X-PAYPAL-REQUEST-DATA-FORMAT:JSON',
'X-PAYPAL-RESPONSE-DATA-FORMAT:XML',
'X-PAYPAL-APPLICATION-ID:'.$appID
);

$url="https://svcs.paypal.com/AdaptivePayments/PaymentDetails?payKey={$payKey}&requestEnvelope.errorLanguage=en_US";
$ch = curl_init($url);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $headerArray);
$adaptiveResponse = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);
return $adaptiveResponse;
}

But it gives this error:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<ns3:FaultMessage xmlns:ns3="http://svcs.paypal.com/types/common" xmlns:ns2="http://svcs.paypal.com/types/ap">

</ns3:FaultMessage>
Was it helpful?

Solution

REQUEST-DATA-FORMAT should be NV:

$headerArray = array(
'X-PAYPAL-SECURITY-USERID:'.$payPalUser_Id,
'X-PAYPAL-SECURITY-PASSWORD:'.$payPalPassword,
'X-PAYPAL-SECURITY-SIGNATURE:'.$payPalSig,
'X-PAYPAL-REQUEST-DATA-FORMAT:NV',
'X-PAYPAL-RESPONSE-DATA-FORMAT:JSON',
'X-PAYPAL-APPLICATION-ID:'.$appID
);
