401 unauthorized simple create order

Trying to do a simple create order API call using curl in sandbox.  I have created a merchant and api token.  With this curl 
C:\curl>curl -H "Authorization: Bearer XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX" -H
"Content-Type: application/json" -d "{"state":"open"}" https://apisandbox.dev.cl
over.com/v3/merchants/XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX/orders -k -v  

I am getting response of 401 unauthorized.  

Also here 
https://sandbox.dev.clover.com/api_docs/#!/orders/CreateOrder

I get a response code of 0 and no content in body.

On the token maintenance I have enabled all permissions.

What am I missing?

Got this working. We were using the wrong merchant id. Found the correct one under setup->account settings -> merchant tab

Try this

curl -X POST https://apisandbox.dev.clover.com/v3/merchants/XXXXXXX/orders --header "Authorization: Bearer XXXXXXXXXX" -H "Content-Type: application/json" --data '{"state": "open"}'| python -mjson.tool

Thanks for the reply. When we try this format we also still get the 401 unauthorized.

$ curl -X POST https://apisandbox.dev.clover.com/v3/merchants/RCTST00XXXXXXX/orders --header "Authorization: Bearer XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX" -H "Content-Type: application/json" --data '{"state": "open"}' | python -mjson.tool
