Sandbox Environment

All Creditsafe REST APIs for Sweden support a sandbox feature, allowing you to build integrations without fetching LIVE data and incurring charges for reports.

Important: Authentication Uses LIVE Environment

No Separate Sandbox URL for Authentication

Authentication for both LIVE and sandbox services is handled through the same CONNECT Authenticate endpoint:

https://connect.creditsafe.com/v1/authenticate

There is no separate sandbox URL for authentication. The sandbox operates within the LIVE environment.

How Sandbox Works

To use a sandbox environment for any of the supported services, a specific Sandbox API service must be set up in the backend at Creditsafe.

  • We provide separate URLs for each service's sandbox version
  • Authentication tokens are generated using the same CONNECT Authenticate endpoint
  • Your user account must have access to both:
    • The service you are integrating with
    • The Sandbox API service
  • All charges incurred during sandbox usage are directed solely to the Sandbox API service

Please refer to the service development manual for instructions on how to make a sandbox request using your chosen service.

Sweden REST APIs Supporting Sandbox

The following Creditsafe Swedish REST APIs support sandbox environments and require authentication via CONNECT Authenticate:

  • GetDataUnits
  • DateCheck Consumer
  • DateCheck Company
  • GetSignatory v2
  • GetData
  • SPAR Consumer search v2

Setting Up Sandbox Access

To access the Sandbox environment:

  1. You will need a signed agreement with Creditsafe
  2. Our sales team will facilitate this agreement
  3. The integration team will provide the necessary credentials to get started
Backend Configuration Required

A specific Sandbox API service must be configured in Creditsafe's backend before you can use sandbox features. Contact the integration team at integration@creditsafe.se to set this up.

Authentication Process for Sandbox

Authorization for sandbox requests is handled in the same manner as LIVE requests:

  1. Call POST https://connect.creditsafe.com/v1/authenticate with your credentials
  2. Receive a JWT token valid for 1 hour
  3. Use the token with the sandbox service URLs (not the authentication URL)
  4. Tokens work across all services (LIVE and sandbox) as long as your account has access

Environment URL Information

Authentication (both LIVE and Sandbox):

https://connect.creditsafe.com/{version}

Current version: v1

Service URLs:
Refer to the individual service documentation for their specific LIVE and sandbox URLs.
