Pure provides a sandbox environment for testing the Execution API — both buying and selling — without using real money.

Sandbox API

Base URL: https://sandbox.api.collectpure.comAll sandbox requests use the same endpoints and schemas as production — just point to the sandbox base URL.

Sandbox API Keys

Generate a sandbox API key from your API Keys dashboard.Select Sandbox environment when creating the key.

​
Getting Started

1

Create a Sandbox API Key

Go to collectpure.com/dashboard/api-keys and create a new API key. Select the Sandbox environment.
2

Sandbox Data is Created For You

When you create a sandbox key, Pure automatically provisions test data for your organization — including products, listings, offers, and payment methods. You can start making API calls immediately.
3

Use the Sandbox Base URL

Point all your requests to https://sandbox.api.collectpure.com instead of the production URL. Use your sandbox API key in the x-api-key header.
4

Test the Full Flow

Fetch test listings or offers, create quotes, review pricing, and execute orders — all in a safe testing environment with no real money involved.
Sandbox API keys cannot be used against the production API, and production keys cannot be used in sandbox. Make sure you’re using the correct key for the environment.

​
Sandbox Endpoints

The sandbox environment exposes additional endpoints to help you discover test data. These endpoints are only available in sandbox and do not exist in production.
