I'm also getting this error.
Yesterday it was work fine and today I'm getting a PayPal URL instead of a sandbox URL.
This needs to be fixed ASAP.

Issue is still there...:(

[petrogad]

Same here. If someone sees this working could they update it?

I tried placing sandbox in front of my url, however that did not seem to be working either.

Thanks!

[drummingdemon]

Same here, sandbox stopped working a few hours ago...any update on a fix or workaround?

[playwolf719]

@petrogad The change does't work, the only way is to wait? OMG

I got this problem again now. I have made no code changes in my end, but all of a sudden it redirects to the live site instead of the sandbox.

[saschanos]

Same for me. Can you please fix this?

[bluk]

SRE-43159 has been opened to track this re-occurance. Thank you for the report.

Hey @Styopchik !

We are not able to reproduce this anymore. We are successfully getting sandbox approval urls.

The above link looks correct. It is pointing to sandbox correctly.
