The sandbox environment lets you test the full API without affecting your production workspace. It behaves identically to production, so any integration you build against the sandbox will work the same way in production with no code changes beyond swapping the base URL and API key.

​
Sandbox base URL

https://api.sandbox.dronebundle.com/v1
Authentication, endpoints, request and response formats, and error codes are all the same as production. Rate limits are lower in the sandbox (see below).

​
Getting started

Sandbox access is set up by the DroneBundle team. To get started:
  1. Contact us to request a sandbox workspace
  2. We will create a workspace and an initial account for you
  3. Log in to the sandbox dashboard at sandbox.dronebundle.com to invite team members and create API keys
  4. Use the sandbox base URL with your sandbox API key to start testing
Self-registration is disabled in the sandbox environment. The DroneBundle team creates the initial workspace and account, and from there you can invite additional team members through the dashboard.

​
Example request

curl -X GET https://api.sandbox.dronebundle.com/v1/projects \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer v1_your_sandbox_api_key"

​
Rate limits

The sandbox environment has lower rate limits than production:
SandboxProduction
Requests per minute (per IP)1001,000
Requests per second251,000
These limits are sufficient for development and integration testing. If you need higher limits for load testing, contact us.

​
Switching to production

When you are ready to go live, update two things:
  1. Change the base URL from api.sandbox.dronebundle.com to api.dronebundle.com
  2. Replace the sandbox API key with a production API key from your dashboard
Everything else stays the same.
