I'm working with cUrl and PHP to make a request to a server (for paypal access)
Paypal developer website does never mention that an SSL certificate is required to use PayPal access API, however the code that I use to request the token is the following:
$options = array(
CURLOPT_URL => $url,
CURLOPT_POST => 1,
CURLOPT_VERBOSE => 1,
CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS => $postvals,
CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER => 1,
CURLOPT_SSLVERSION => 3
);
curl_setopt_array($ch, $options);
$response = curl_exec($ch);
echo curl_error($ch);
This echo outputs the following error:
SSL certificate problem: unable to get local issuer certificate
My questions are:
1) do I need SSL to use paypal access if I need only to get the user email?
2) if I do not need SSL why this error occours?
PS: the endpoint is the following: https://www.sandbox.paypal.com/webapps/auth/protocol/openidconnect/v1/tokenservice
