How do I get a sandbox token?

Testing our API in a sandbox environment has never been easier!

If you are ready to test Onfido API, you can generate tokens within your own dashboard.

1. Firstly log on to your dashboard. Go to the 'Developers' tab and then 'Tokens'. Or you can use the following link.

2. From the 'API token' page, click on 'Generate API token' button and it will open a new pop-up as highlighted below:

3. Choose the environment type as 'Sandbox' and click on 'Generate' button. Once the Sandbox token is generated, securely store it as you won't be able to access it again.

In the meantime for more information on Onfido’s API please see here or our API FAQ page

Please note, you can also now test webhook endpoints and identify errors straight from your dashboard.

Once you have completed your testing or are ready to move to a live environment please email client-support@onfido.com with your live token request.
