Sandbox and production environments
Appmax provides two distinct environments for integration.
Sandbox (test environment)
Use the sandbox to test your integration before going to production and before being approved in the homologation process.
| Service | URL |
|---|---|
| Authentication | https://auth.sandboxappmax.com.br |
| API | https://api.sandboxappmax.com.br |
| Authorization | https://breakingcode.sandboxappmax.com.br/appstore/integration/HASH |
| JS script (Appmax JS) | https://scripts.sandboxappmax.com.br/appmax.min.js |
Production
Use production to transact with real customers.
| Service | URL |
|---|---|
| Authentication | https://auth.appmax.com.br |
| API | https://api.appmax.com.br |
| Authorization | https://admin.appmax.com.br/appstore/integration/HASH |
| JS script (Appmax JS) | https://scripts.appmax.com.br/appmax.min.js |
Summary of differences
INFO
- In sandbox, URLs use the
sandboxappmaxsubdomain and the redirect goes to BC Sandbox. - In production, URLs use the standard
appmaxdomain and the redirect goes to Appmax Admin.
Testing payments in the sandbox
- Credit card: the result depends on the card number. See the test cards.
- Pix and boleto: they are approved automatically in ~5 seconds, and there are specific documents to keep the order pending. See Testing in the sandbox.
Sandbox instability
The sandbox environment may experience slowness or temporary downtime. If you get timeout (504) or 503 errors, wait a few minutes and try again. These issues do not affect the production environment. If it persists for more than 30 minutes, contact support.
