Sandbox- and Production environment

Introduction

Before you can use your application consuming the Exact Multivers Web API, your application must be tested on the "Sandbox" (test) environment. The steps to regiser on this Sandbox environment are described in this document. After testing your application you can register your application on the Production environment. Exact will validate your application based on statistics in the Sandbox environment. The registration process for both the Sandbox- and Production environment are identical, so this is only discussed once. The registration proces on the Production enviroment can be started after testing your application on the Sandbox environment.
