Environments

Use separate environments when integrating the partner API into your own backend or operational systems.

These are API environments for B2B integrations, not the public checkname.ch website experience.

Environment matrix

Environment Base URL Swagger / OpenAPI UI Purpose
Sandbox https://api.test.checkname.ch https://api.test.checkname.ch/docs Integration testing and pre-production validation
Production https://api.checkname.ch https://api.checkname.ch/docs Live partner traffic

Configuration checklist

  • Configure a unique API key per environment.
  • Set request timeout and retry policy in your HTTP client.
  • Capture request_id or equivalent response metadata in logs.
  • Monitor 4xx/5xx error rates and latency percentiles.

Promotion recommendations

  1. Validate schema handling in sandbox.
  2. Validate business decision mapping on realistic payloads.
  3. Promote to production behind a feature flag.
  4. Roll out progressively and monitor.
