note: >-
  Captured from Co:Create's published docs via the Internet Archive (live host offline). Co:Create is a web3
  (Polygon) platform, not a card processor — there are no published test card numbers. The test surface is a
  fully separate sandbox environment with its own base URL and API key.
environments:
- name: production
  base_url: https://api.cocrt.xyz
  description: Live environment; on-chain actions run against production contracts on Polygon.
- name: sandbox
  base_url: https://api.testcocrt.xyz
  description: >-
    Free self-service sandbox to try API requests and build an integration before going live. Uses a separate
    sandbox API key.
test_vs_live:
  separation: Separate base URL and separate API key per environment.
  key_model: >-
    Each environment issues its own Secret API Key (generated in Team Settings). Switching environments means
    switching both the base URL and the Bearer key.
signup:
  description: Sign up for the free Co:Create sandbox, log in, and generate an API key in Team Settings.
  reference: https://docs.usecocreate.io/docs/getting-started
notes:
- Sandbox data may be reset periodically due to maintenance; resets are announced in advance in Discord.
- >-
    The interactive API reference lets you enter your API key and switch the base URL between production
    (api.cocrt.xyz) and sandbox (api.testcocrt.xyz).
- 'Suggested first sandbox requests (from docs): create a user, deploy a token contract, mint tokens to a user.'
