Sandbox and Staging

There are two test environments, sandbox and staging.

A sandbox environment is available for simple, proof-of-concept (POC) testing. Sandbox returns simulated data. Some features are different or restricted compared to a staging environment:

  • Sandbox is for those interested in Direct integrations. It is not intended for Capture testing.
  • All requested signals provide results.
  • A capture session must begin by way of a QR code (return_capture_url), not a text message.
  • The default time-to-live (ttl) parameter is set at 10 minutes and cannot be changed in Sandbox or Staging. It is, however, editable once you go to a production environment.
  • Simulated transaction objects are stored for a limited time.
  • Transactions expire after 24 hours.

A staging environment is available for end-to-end testing. Staging is available to Intellicheck customers only. It can accept real requests, and it returns real data just like a production environment.

Sandbox, staging, and production credentials are provided only during the implementation process. Your assigned solutions & implementation engineer will request these credentials.
