summary: >-
  Lili publishes a full, separately-credentialled sandbox with a simulation API that lets a partner
  drive an application all the way from creation to an approved, opened bank account without any
  human, vendor or compliance officer in the loop. That is unusually complete for an onboarding API.
environments:
- name: Sandbox
  base_url: https://sandbox.lili.co
  purpose: Test and simulate onboarding scenarios before going live.
  embed_flag: 'data-env="Sandbox"'
  webhook_source_ips: [18.213.104.31, 3.208.116.48, 34.202.116.80]
- name: Production
  base_url: https://prod.lili.co

  webhook_source_ips: [3.209.35.162, 52.202.86.146, 54.208.152.74]
credentials:
  model: separate-per-environment
  detail: >-
    Lili issues a distinct accessKey/secretKey pair for each environment on account creation. There
    is no test/live key PREFIX convention published — the key itself does not tell you which
    environment it belongs to, which is the one place a partner can get this wrong silently.

simulation_api:
  published: true
  added: 'Changelog 2.2.4, 2025-09-28 ("Sandbox automated testing")'
  endpoint: POST https://sandbox.lili.co/lili/api/v1/sandbox/{customerId}/{activity}
  purpose: >-
    Imitate the third-party vendors and internal teams whose real responses cannot be reproduced in
    a test environment.
  parameters:
  - {name: customerId, description: 'UUID of the customer, from the Create Application API response'}
  - {name: activity, description: One of the four activity values below}
  activities:
  - {value: docv_upload, simulates: Customer document verification (passport plus selfie), order: 1}
  - {value: llc_doc_upload, simulates: LLC document upload — all required documents treated as uploaded, order: 2}
  - {value: kyb_provider_upload, simulates: The KYB vendor response, approving the business, order: 3}
  - {value: compliance_approve, simulates: Lili compliance team approval, order: 4}
  full_run: Call the four activities in the listed order for a complete onboarding simulation.

test_fixtures:
  test_cards: none_published
  test_bank_accounts: none_published
  test_identities: none_published
  note: >-
    Lili publishes no canned test SSNs, EINs, cards or bank accounts. The sandbox works by
    simulating the DECISIONS of the verification vendors rather than by supplying magic input
    values, so a partner supplies arbitrary applicant data and then drives the outcome.
time_simulation:
  supported: false
  note: No test clock or time-travel facility is documented.
triggers:
  webhooks: >-
    Webhook deliveries fire against the sandbox webhook registration as each simulated activity
    advances the application, which is how a partner observes the state machine.
