Using the Test API

Introduction

The API test mode allows you to learn how to work with the Unitpay API on test data without actually conducting transactions:

  • data exchange;

  • format of queries and responses;

  • content of queries and responses.

To use the API in test mode, you must add the params[test]=1 parameter to the query.

The test data that need to be transmitted in queries:

IMPORTANT NOTE! After switching to operative mode, remember to change the test parameters to actual ones!

For the API in test mode, you should send all the mandatory parameters which can be viewed on the main page of the used method. All the response parameters of the API in test mode correspond to the response in operative mode unless otherwise stated in the test API documentation.
