Our sandbox environment provides a sandbox to implement Invoiced, perform quality assurance (QA), and develop integrations.

## Sandbox

You can sign up for a free sandbox account at [https://sandbox.invoiced.com/signup](https://sandbox.invoiced.com/signup). 

In the sandbox you will be able to test out workflows and integrations you are building on Invoiced. The sandbox is identical to our production environment with the exception that it **does not perform any live charges** to credit cards or bank accounts. Sandbox accounts are entirely separate from your production account in order to keep testing isolated.

### Data Storage and Rate Limiting

**You should not depend on any data stored in the sandbox.** Test data is not guaranteed to be retained, and we might periodically clean out old test data to preserve system resources. Generally this would happen after data has been stale for months.

The sandbox is intented to allow you to build and test without restrictions, however, we could enforce rate limiting or data caps to prevent abuse. In normal scenarios you should never bump into these.

### Clearing data

You can clear all the data in your test account in **Settings** → **Developers** with the **Delete all test data** button. This will clear out data such as customers, invoices, and subscriptions while retaining your settings.

### Payments

When using test mode for payments, you can use the payment information below to simulate payments in various scenarios.

### API

In order to access the sandbox through the API you must use the `api.sandbox.invoiced.com` endpoint. All of our official client libraries have support for the sandbox built in. You simply pass in your sandbox API key and `true` as the second argument when instantiating a new API client, i.e. `Invoiced::Client.new("{YOUR_SANDBOX_API_KEY}", true)`.
