What is the difference between sandbox and production environments?
Peace Simon
Use the Sandbox environment to test API calls for free with mock data. Switch to Production for live, billable verifications once your integration is verified.
Sandbox Environment: Used for testing and development. It allows you to simulate API calls without affecting live data or incurring real charges. To test each API in sandbox, you'll need specific data. Please see test data here.
Production Environment: Used for live, real-user verifications. All requests are processed against real data sources and will incur billing.
Before going live, ensure your integration works correctly in sandbox. Once ready, switch your API keys and endpoints to production.
