Sandbox Environment
Overview of the different environments provided by Ottimate and the associated API URLs for each environment
The Ottimate API has two environments:
Sandbox Environment
The Sandbox environment is where you can test, develop and validate your integrations and use cases prior to impacting accounting workflows in Production.
- The Sandbox environment data and settings are separte from the Production environment. The same entity will have different Ottimate-generated identifiers in each environment.
- The Sandbox environment replicates most features and functionalities of the Production environment.
Sandbox Dashboard
You can log in and test your integration as an end-user in the Sandbox Dashboard. The following methods of invoice upload are supported in the Sandbox:
- Desktop upload via InstantCapture.
- Manual Creation from the Invoice Tab.
Ottimate will provision your Sandbox and Production credentials in two separate stages. This ensures adequate test and validation in the Sandbox environment before the integration is released to accounting users and mitigates the risk of impacting high-stakes accounting tasks.
