summary: >-
  Anywhere publishes a real sandbox environment and an in-browser Try It console, but both
  sit behind the same human approval gate as production. There are no magic test values, no
  test card numbers and no anonymously reachable sandbox endpoint — the sandbox is a
  separately credentialed environment, not a public playground.
environments:
- name: Sandbox
  purpose: 'Verbatim - "The sandbox environment is where you test the functionality of an API."'
  self_serve: false
  approval_required: true
  approval_sla: up to 2 business days
  credentials: separate API key plus separate Okta client credentials, issued per application
  identity_provider: https://realogy.oktapreview.com
  token_endpoint: https://realogy.oktapreview.com/oauth2/ausdtpyw647fbrcPi0h7/v1/token
  base_urls_published: false
  base_url_note: >-
    'REST API URL(s) will be communicated separately for each environment (Non-Prod and
    Production).' No sandbox host is published anonymously.
- name: Production
  self_serve: false
  approval_required: true
  approval_sla: up to 2 business days
  identity_provider: https://realogy.okta.com

onboarding_flow:
- Choose an API product from https://developers.anywhere.re/api-products
- Register free on the portal (or log in with an existing Anywhere ID) and activate by email link
- Accept the API Terms of Use & License Agreement
- Add an App under My Apps, selecting the API product, the environment and a Company/Group/Team
- Wait for Anywhere approval of sandbox access (up to 2 business days)
- Collect the API key and Okta client credentials from My Apps
- Build and test against the sandbox
- Request production access; wait for a second Anywhere approval (up to 2 business days)
console:
  name: Try It
  present: true
  gated: true
  location: every API product Specification page
  description: >-
    Verbatim - "Anywhere Try It setup allows you to make API calls directly from API docs.
    You can check any API method using this function to get real time responses with no
    coding." The developer supplies a bearer token and apiKey, selects an environment
    (target server) and query parameters, and sends.
  requires: [product access for the chosen environment, API key from My Apps, Okta credentials, generated bearer token]

code_samples:
  present: true
  gated: true
  languages: [curl, nodejs, javascript, python, csharp, java]
  response_samples: >-
    'Response sample provide all possible error codes and associated messages that you can
    expect for a given API method.'
postman:
  present: true
  public: false
  location: the Essential Reads section of each API product page
  workflow:
  - Download the product's Postman collection from Essential Reads
  - Import it into Postman
  - Collect API Key, Okta Client ID, Okta Client Secret, Scope and Okta URL from Dashboard > My Apps
  - 'Generate a bearer token: Basic Auth with Client ID / Client Secret, x-www-form-urlencoded body with grant_type=client_credentials and scope'
  - 'Set globals: token, baseUrl (from the specification page) and apiKey'
  globals: [token, baseUrl, apiKey]

test_data:
  magic_values_published: false
  test_cards: none
  test_identifiers: none
  fixtures: none
  time_simulation: none
  note: >-
    Anywhere publishes no test values of any kind anonymously. Nothing was invented for this
    artifact — the sandbox is credentialed, not seeded with public fixtures.
gaps:
- No anonymously callable sandbox endpoint, so a developer cannot evaluate the API before entering a commercial relationship.
- Sandbox and production each require a separate human approval, adding up to 4 business days before first production call.
