PayPal Developer Sandbox API Credentials do not provide username, password and signature

Trying to setup an app with a sandbox account on PayPal. I already had a Business account with PayPal and have created a new application under the Sandbox.

I am provided with 3 credentials by PayPal:

  • Sandbox account which has the appearance of an email address
  • Client ID
  • Secret

However, using Omnipay with Laravel and it asks me for Username, Password and Signature in the config/env. I have some legacy prod credentials which look nothing like those provided by PayPal above, so can't even make an educated guess.

Thank you in advance.

Client ID/Secret are API credentials from a REST App (which if for sandbox mode will be tied to a particular sandbox account when the app is created)

For the old classic NVP/SOAP API Username/Password/Signature credentials, go directly to the sandbox account list and in manage accounts (...) select View/Edit account, second tab.
