I have tested my PayPal app in the sandbox and I am happy with it.
I would like now to move my app to production.
I am reading this: https://developer.paypal.com/reference/production/
But it’s not clear what to do for me.
Do I have to create another app or just move my tested app to live by pressing the "Sandbox/Live" button?
When I go to: https://developer.paypal.com/dashboard/applications/sandbox
I see my "Default Application" (System generated, no actions available).
This is this "Default Application" that I used for my tests.
If I click on "Default Application" I can see the "SANDBOX API CREDENTIALS":
- Client ID
- Secret
These are the credentials I used for my tests.
Also, I see a "Sandbox/Live" button that is currently set to "Sandbox".
When I press this button, it is set to "Live".
I now see "LIVE API CREDENTIALS" but the credentials are missing.
I don’t see the new credentials.
Moreover, if I go back to: https://developer.paypal.com/dashboard/applications/sandbox
There’s also a message "You’re in sandbox mode.".
It means I am still not in "Live".
If I try to press the "Sandbox/Live" button, it does not want to go live.
So, I am stuck.
How to move my PayPal app to production please?
Thank you.
Best regards.

For others who might have the same problem: if clicking the upper-right "Live" toggle does not work to switch to live, ensure:
