Environments

🧪 Staging (Sandbox)

• Base URL: https://api.staging.sawfish.com.au
• The staging environment is a sandbox used for development and testing.
• Transactions and actions performed here do not affect production data.

Use staging to:

• Test authentication and API calls safely
• Validate workflows end-to-end with test card data
• Experiment with error handling and edge cases

Access Requirements:

• Access to staging is restricted. To gain access, you must request credentials by:
  • Filling out the Get in Touch form, or
  • Requesting to join the Sawfish API Community Slack channel.

🚀 Production

• Base URL: https://api.sawfish.com.au
• The production environment is the live system where real customer data and transactions are processed.
• Use production only once your integration is tested and approved.

Important Notes:

• Production requires unique credentials separate from staging.
• Only real data and real payment instruments are processed here.
• Ensure you have completed testing in staging before moving to production.
