API Keys, Test and Live
I am ready to make our website live.
A couple of glitches alas, and I had to get our local server guru to reinstate the old one. I hope o succeed later today.
Meanwhile, I have all my API keys that I used on my TESTSITE, but I am not allowed to fill in those credentials in the API live fields in cart settings.
Can anyone help? I hope, I hope.
Take care,

Re: API Keys, Test and Live
You'll need to set the cart to Live before you can enter the PayPal credentials

Re: API Keys, Test and Live
I have searched, but have missed where to set the cart to Live. I Know it's easy if I could just locate it!
Many thanks,

Re: API Keys, Test and Live
Which should I use?
Do not know why png image doesn't come up.
At any rate, when one goes to PayPal, there are four choices of the type of API credentials one should use. Ben probably knows the answer to this one.
Which should I use?
Thanks,

Re: API Keys, Test and Live
I haven’t looked at the PayPal side for a while. What are the four choices?

Re: API Keys, Test and Live
Hi Ben,
they are:
Pre-built payment solution
REST API integration
Braintree SDK integration
NVP/SOAP API integration (Classic)

Re: API Keys, Test and Live
Logic figured that the fourth option, based on the descriptions, was the best one, and ta-daaa, it worked:
Here is the screen shot for the choices that Backlight folks may encounter:
So, choose the NVP/SOAP option!
