What Is Coinbase Sandbox?

Coinbase Sandbox is a new way for developers to test their integrations with Coinbase Pro before going live. It’s a safe, simulated environment that mirrors the live Coinbase Pro platform, giving developers the ability to test their code in a realistic setting without having to first create a live account.

Coinbase Sandbox comes with its own set of mock data, meaning that developers can test their integrations without having to worry about handling real customer funds. This makes it the perfect place to test out new features or try out new ideas without having to worry about breaking things in the process.

NOTE: WARNING: Coinbase Sandbox is a testing environment for developers who want to experiment with the Coinbase API. It is not meant for production use and should not be used to store or trade real money. Any funds sent to the Sandbox environment are virtual and will not be available outside of the Sandbox environment.

To access Coinbase Sandbox, developers simply need to create a new API key through their Coinbase Pro account. Once they have done this, they will be able to switch between the live and Sandbox environments with the click of a button.

Coinbase Sandbox is currently in beta, but is open to all developers who wish to use it. The team is constantly working on adding new features and making improvements, so be sure to check back often for updates.
