#### **API Environment Details**

To make testing and developing with our API, we make use of the different API endpoints for sandbox and production, with the same **access token** used when calling the APIs.

### Requests and Responses <a href="#requests-and-responses" id="requests-and-responses"></a>

Both request body data and response data are formatted as JSON. Content type for responses will always be `application/json`. Generally, all responses will be in the following format:

{% code overflow="wrap" lineNumbers="true" %}

```php
{
  "status": "[boolean]",
  "message": "[string]",
  "data": "[object]"
}
```

{% endcode %}
