I am basically trying to use the PAY call of Adaptive Payments to programmatically and immediately send funds from my own paypal account to other accounts. According to the documentation, so long as I specify the senderEmail (my own paypal address, used to set up the Adaptive Payments), this should work verbatim.
However, when I make the call, I always get result "CREATED" instead of "COMPLETED". Created means the system still wants me to manually log into PayPal and approve the payments. I really need these payments to occur automatically on the spot. Any help would be appreciated.
Here is my request string:
currencyCode=USD&
returnUrl=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.website.com%2F&
actionType=PAY&
cancelUrl=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.website.com%2F&
receiverList.receiver%280%29.email=receiver%40gmail.com&
receiverList.receiver%280%29.amount=1.00&
requestEnvelope.senderEmail=me%40gmail.com&
clientDetails.deviceId=mydevice&
clientDetails.ipAddress=127.0.0.1&
clientDetails.applicationId=APP-ZZZZZZZZZZZZZ&
requestEnvelope.errorLanguage=en_US&
memo=memo&
feesPayer=EACHRECEIVER&
ipnNotificationUrl=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.website.com%2Fpay.php
And here is the response from PayPal:
[responseEnvelope.timestamp] => 2012-03-01T19:09:57.290-08:00
[responseEnvelope.ack] => Success
[responseEnvelope.correlationId] => 71efd416a2100
[responseEnvelope.build] => 2486531
[payKey] => AP-ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
[paymentExecStatus] => CREATED
Forget everything I said earlier. The problem isn't an inconsistency between Sandbox and Live either, but rather a wrong parameter for 'senderEmail'.
Simply change:
requestEnvelope.senderEmail=me@gmail.com&
To:
senderEmail=me@gmail.com&
For example, the following returns a 'COMPLETED' implicit payment.
<?php
function AdaptiveCall($bodyparams, $method, $payKey) {
try
{
$body_data = http_build_query($bodyparams, "", chr(38));
$url = trim("https://svcs.sandbox.paypal.com/AdaptivePayments/".$method."");
$params = array("http" => array(
"method" => "POST",
"content" => $body_data,
"header" => "X-PAYPAL-SECURITY-USERID: xxxxxxxxx\r\n" .
"X-PAYPAL-SECURITY-SIGNATURE: xxxxxxxxxxx\r\n" .
"X-PAYPAL-SECURITY-PASSWORD: xxxxxxx\r\n" .

"X-PAYPAL-REQUEST-DATA-FORMAT: NV\r\n" .
"X-PAYPAL-RESPONSE-DATA-FORMAT: NV\r\n"
)
);
//create stream context
$ctx = stream_context_create($params);
//open the stream and send request
$fp = @fopen($url, "r", false, $ctx);
//get response
$response = stream_get_contents($fp);
//check to see if stream is open
if ($response === false) {
throw new Exception("php error message = " . "$php_errormsg");
}
//close the stream
fclose($fp);
//parse the ap key from the response
$keyArray = explode("&", $response);
foreach ($keyArray as $rVal){
list($qKey, $qVal) = explode ("=", $rVal);
$kArray[$qKey] = $qVal;
}
//print the response to screen for testing purposes
If ( $kArray["responseEnvelope.ack"] == "Success") {
echo "<strong>".$method ."</strong><br>";
foreach ($kArray as $key =>$value){
echo $key . ": " .$value . "<br/>";
}
// Return payKey
global $payKey;
if(!empty($kArray['payKey'])) { $payKey = $kArray['payKey']; return($payKey); }
}
else {
echo 'ERROR Code: ' . $kArray["error(0).errorId"] . " <br/>";
echo 'ERROR Message: ' . urldecode($kArray["error(0).message"]) . " <br/>";
}
}
catch(Exception $e) {
echo "Message: ||" .$e->getMessage()."||";
}
}
//Create Pay body
$bodyparams = array ( "requestEnvelope.errorLanguage" => "en_US",
