Does this link work?

I am trying to get my QB online token secret required for working with a ruby gem. I have a valid QB account and I have entered my app's consumer key & secret. All I am trying to do is follow the instructions required to get the example app working from
https://github.com/minimul/qbo_api
Every time I click on the Connect to Quickbooks button, I just get an error message.
Oops! An error has occurred.
Please close this window and try again.
Error Code: no_access_to_this_field
Message: Team Intuit IA Application not allowed to get access to QuickBooks
I have changed the urls in my app and I still cannot get past the error message. I am at a loss since this seems to be a very basic step to start working with the gem. Please tell me the newbie mistake I am making.
Is there any other SDK I need to install? I do not have a Desktop version...just the online version.
So if anyone here happens to not figure out this answer already, its because I set the "Access Token Duration:" option on the Intuit Playground to 120 seconds...the default option.
I changed it to 1200 seconds by mistake, and the login works just fine now! I don't understand why that works, so if someone could answer that I could understand it better!
Thanks #William Lorfing
This can happen if you are using the playground to generate Oauth tokens for either QuickBooks or Payments access and you are not setting the correct data source.

I need to migrate to another PayPal account and start receiving payments there. The previous setup is working great but I cant see to figure out how to migrate to the new account.
The existing PayPal configuration is as follows:
test:
paypal_email: email#fake.com
paypal_secret: xxxxxxxxxx
paypal_cert_id: ASLJKDLA334LJ
paypal_url: "https://www.sandbox.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr"
key_pass: 0000
In my PayPal account I go to "Business Setup" -> "Get your API Credentials" -> "View API Signature" and I see some different information that looks like this:
API Username: somename.butnotemail
API Password: ALKSDFLADSJLKAJSDASDALKSDJ
Signature: afalksdjfal.asdflkjalsdfjalksfjqwefasdfaksdf.aksdjfhaksdfha
First of all they do not seem to match and if I try to replace them the payment is leading to "Sorry — your last action could not be completed" page.
Can you please give me some insight on this? Am I looking at the wrong place? Where can I find the credentials I need?
Any help would be really appreciated
Thanks, in advance
From reading around, it sounds like the API key isn't what you're looking for in Ruby On Rails. I found this on Kestrel Blackmore's site -- it's to do with what happens when your credentials expire, but hopefully you can turn it to your ends as well.

Perhaps the data in your configuration is referring to a PayPal REST API App? Check the following link (while logged in) in your old account, or create an app with your new account and use the generated credentials

I am using the latest version of the iOS Paypal SDK (2.0.1) and am getting the following error when making a single payment.
payPal SDK: Request has failed with error: VALIDATION_ERROR - The payment information is invalid. Please correct and submit again. (400) | PayPal Debug-ID: 5a103a01e6d3a | Details: (
{
field = "redirect_urls";
issue = "This field required when payment_method is 'paypal'";
}
So it appears I need to set some redirect_urls. I have not seen any mention of how/where I should be setting these in the PayPal documentation (for iOS)
Can someone shed some light on this for me please?
Thanks
Dave from PayPal here.
We've seen this rather surprising error message before, if when making a payment one specifies the same PayPal account for both the payer and the merchant (payee).
When you make test payments using the PayPal iOS SDK, be sure to log into a PayPal account different from your merchant account.
(And yes, our server team is looking into fixing the error message that is returned in this situation.)
I've seen posts that you should use ActiveMerchant for PayPal integration, but I also found this on the PayPal website.I'm struggling with placing what in which file, since I'm totally new to RoR. So I was trying to integrate the PayPal, but am not sure where to place which code.
Should I use active merchant for PayPal integration, or is the Rest-API the best choice. I want people to fill out their username, pay and when successful they receive digital content. So there should be a call with a result and the username.
Do you have a link, step by step, at least including which code I should place in which file, so I get the basics of RoR better.
Standard PayPal Integration with Rails app Active Merchant gem :
step 1:
-> add 'gem activemerchant' in gem file
-> bundle install
step 2:
-> Go to "www.developer.paypal.com" and create an account(also known as Merchant Account) with US address details.
-> It will create two dummy test account for buyer and seller(alias facilitator) in "sandbox.paypal.com".
Ex:
Seller account ---> naveengoud-facilitator#gmail.com
Buyer account ---> naveengoud-buyer#gmail.com
-> To see test accounts details Click on "Dashboard -> Accounts"
-> Now set the password for both test accounts by clicking on profile link
step 3:
-> Go to seller account(i.e, facilitator) profile details and copy the API Credentials i.e, Username, password and signature
Ex:
Username: naveengoud-facilitator_api1.gamil.com
Password: VSPALJ5ALA5YY9YJ
Signature: AVLslxW5UGzEpaDPEK4Oril7Xo4IAYjdWHD25HhS8a8kqPYO4FjFhd6A
-> Set these API Credentials in "config/environments/development.rb" as follows, add the below code with API credentials
config.after_initialize do
ActiveMerchant::Billing::Base.mode = :test
::GATEWAY = ActiveMerchant::Billing::PaypalGateway.new(
login: "merchant_api1.gotealeaf.com",
password: "2PWPEUKZXAYE7ZHR",
signature: "AFcWxV21C7fd0v3bYYYRCpSSRl31A-dRI5VpyF4A9emruhNYzlM8poc0"
)
end
step 4:
-> From here onward follow the Rails cast 145 episode(http://railscasts.com/episodes/145-integrating-active-merchant)
I found the PayPal API documentation to be quite confusing. Also, my application requirements were not satisfied through the API, so I ended up with a rather simple solution.
The solution mainly consists of two components:
PayPal buttons, which I generate on PayPal website and copy the HTML to my website
PayPal IPN notifications, for which I have a simple handler on my website
This is how the whole solution works in detail
For the user to make payments, I use the PayPal Buttons. For this, you just login to your PayPal business account and generate HTML code for buttons which you can copy and paste into your website.
The user can click on these buttons, they will be redirected to PayPal website, they make payments and have a button to come back to your website.
When the transaction is done (either success or failure), PayPal will inform you via PayPal IPN Notifications. I have implemented an IPN handler on my website, which was quite easy to do.
By the time the user returns to my website, in most cases, I would have already got the IPN notification, hence I can show them a success message.
In case the IPN got delayed, I tell the users that it will take a couple more minutes to update their balance and use AJAX to keep querying the server for updates.
Here are some useful references:
PayPal Buttons
Rail Casts on PayPal IPN
If you need, you can also dynamically generate the buttons via the Button Manager API gem
This link will help you to get better understanding on integration of Basic Checkout, Charge Credit Cards and Recurring Payments with paypal in Ruby On Rails application
http://www.gotealeaf.com/blog/basic-paypal-checkout-processing-in-rails
You can find solutions for following concepts,
1) Basic Checkout
2) Charge Credit Cards
3) Recurring Payments
Look at this for rails integration:

I am new to both paypal and substruct. I trying to integrate paypal with 'Substruct'. The problem I am facing is that the payment status codes are not being updated in the admin panel.
All of them are on Hold even when paypal sandbox successfully confirmed the orders. From the web somebody suggested that the 'notify_url' needs to be set in the confirm order form
Paypal documention says the same as well.
https://cms.paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/?cmd=_render-content&content_ID=developer/e_howto_html_Appx_websitestandard_htmlvariables
What value should I provide to the notify_url so that the webserver on my machine is notified. BTW my webserver is behind a LAN.
check the substruct documentation # http://code.google.com/p/substruct/wiki/PayPal
