Odoo needs your API Credentials & Keys to connect with your Authorize.Net account, which comprise:
API Login ID: The ID solely used to identify the account with Authorize.Net.

To retrieve them, log into your Authorize.Net account, go to , generate your Transaction Key and Signature Key, and paste them on the related fields in Odoo. Then, click on Generate Client Key.
Important
If you are trying Authorize.Net as a test, with a sandbox account, change the State to Test Mode. We recommend doing this on a test Odoo database, rather than on your main database.
If you set Test Mode on Odoo and use an authorize.net account instead of a sandbox.authorize.net account, it results in the following error: The merchant login ID or password is invalid or the account is inactive.
