sandbox test user does not have permission to create business policies.

[satoke64]

I tried to create business policies for my Sandbox test user by sending requests via the API, but I consistently receive 400 errors. I have confirmed that the OAuth token I’m using includes the required scopes for the calls.

I also tried using the eBay API Explorer, but the same error occurred. So I believe the issue is not with my code, but rather with missing permissions for the Sandbox user.

Endpoints I’m trying to access:

• https://api.ebay.com/sell/account/v1/fulfillment_policy/

• https://api.ebay.com/sell/account/v1/payment_policy

• https://api.ebay.com/sell/account/v1/return_policy

How can I grant the necessary permissions to the Sandbox test user in order to use these endpoints?

If the cause is something else, what could be the actual reason?

Hello @satoke64 ,

We want to inform you that you need to opt into business policies. Please make sure to use "optInToProgram" API call to enable the use of business policies for your selling account in sandbox. Once you have opted into the eBay seller program, you should be able to create business policies. 

For more information, please refer to the following documentation:  https://developer.ebay.com/api-docs/sell/account/resources/program/methods/optInToProgram
