This guide will help you identify the steps required to use Flexiti’s APIs and plugins.

Authentication

The Flexiti API uses API keys to authenticate requests. Your keys consist of a Client ID and a Client Secret. You can view and manage your API keys in our Developer Portal.

Every account is provided with two sets of keys. One for testing in our TRAINING environment and one for running live transactions in our PRODUCTION environment.

Obtaining your Flexiti API Keys

• Go to our Developer Portal

• Create a Developer Portal Account to receive API keys and set up your Trust URL (or IP).

  • Be sure to keep them secure!

• Review the API or Plugin documentation

• Implement the TRAINING (test) version on your Staging environment and test thoroughly

• Implement the PROD (live) version on your Production environment and review

TRAINING and PRODUCTION environments

...

Environments

Developers have access to three different environments: TRAINING, MERCHANT INTEGRATION, and PRODUCTION.

All API requests exist in TRAINING, MERCHANT INTEGRATION, and PRODUCTION environments. All objects - customers, plans, transactions, etc. created in one environment don’t do not exist in the otherothers. The TRAINING and PRODUCTION environments function almost identically, with a few necessary differences.

In our TRAINING environment:

...

Our TRAINING environment:

• For most Online API and Plugin implementations, our Training environment will be the best environment to develop your Flexiti project in.

• This environment is a sandbox for testing that uses the same code base as our current production environment.

• Transactions and customer accounts generated in this environment are only treated as test objects and is test data is scrubbed daily.

...

Our MERCHANT INTEGRATION environment:

• For most POS API implementations, our Merchant Integration environment will be the best environment to develop your Flexiti project in.

• This environment is considered a “test” environment

In our PRODUCTION environment:

• a sandbox for integrating new features for upcoming Flexiti releases.

• We introduce pre-release code to this environment to give Merchants an opportunity to integrate the new features and functionality ahead of our Production release.

Our PRODUCTION environment:

• This environment is the “Live” production environment.

• Customer accounts generated in this environment hit the Credit Bureau and any Transactional data generated in this environment are stored in Flexiti’s production systemsThis environment is considered a “Live” production environmentis real.
