Sandbox

An isolated test environment for merchant integrations is coming soon.

Coming soon

An isolated sandbox for merchant integrations is on the way. It will let you build and validate against seeded test disputes and alerts without touching production data, with seeded scenarios (won, lost, representment, alert prevented) and an in-page API explorer. Interactive, runnable tutorials will ship alongside it.

Use this in the meantime

Until the sandbox ships, build against the live API with care.

Build safely before the sandbox

  1. Generate API keys from the Chargeflow App, see API keys.
  2. Read disputes and alerts before you write, so you can confirm response shapes without side effects.
  3. Make your first call with the Quickstart.
  4. Work through the Go-live checklist before you send production traffic.

What you will be able to test

  • Authentication against https://api.chargeflow.io using the x-api-key header.
  • List and read disputes with pagination, and fetch a single dispute by ID.
  • Upload evidence, following Upload evidence.
  • Pre-chargeback alerts, following Manage alerts.
  • Webhooks for dispute.created and alert events, following Subscribe to events.
