Mintsoft doesn't have a sandbox-style system for customers to use, many developers will ask for a testing or sandbox account so that they can test or work with the API during development.
​
For 3PL customers, we advise making a new client on your system and using that for testing then any changes will only affect that client. To do this just set up an additional Client on your account e.g. Client API Test. Once the Client has been created you'll just need to provide them with a Client User account which they will be able to use to generate an API key. The developer can then create products and orders via the API without affecting any of the clients day to day order activity. Once development and testing are complete all you would then need to do is provide them with a Client User account against the real live client and they will be good to go.
​
For multichannel customers, you can create test SKUs and import the orders as an alternative order channel.
