Build validation services with trusted global data

DOCUMENTATON USE CASES

Technical features

The Sandbar is a fully functional copy of our production API, perfect for testing and validation but with limited datasets. Advanced features like caching are available on the full API.

SANDBAR DOCUMENTATION

Stable and Backward-Compatible

Say goodbye to frequent breaking changes typical with REST. GraphQL ensures smoother versioning and future-proof integration.

Self-Service Schema

Request only the data you need—no more over-fetching. Live documentation lets you easily reference fields and outputs without endless scrolling.

Efficient Error Handling

Get instant feedback with 4xx error codes for any request issues, so you can debug faster without guessing if it's a server problem.

One Endpoint, Always

No need to juggle multiple URLs. Every query hits a single, consistent endpoint, simplifying your workflows.
