DESCRIPTION

Business::PayPal::API::AuthorizationRequest implements PayPal's AuthorizationRequest API using SOAP::Lite to make direct API calls to PayPal's SOAP API server. It also implements support for testing via PayPal's sandbox. Please see Business::PayPal::API for details on using the PayPal sandbox. This request is only used with "Order" type Authorizations. An "Order" must first be placed using the ExpressCheckout module. DirectPayment authorizations can only be used for "Basic" authorizations.
