description: >-
  Origami Risk separates test from production by HOST, not by key prefix or mode flag.
  The {environment} placeholder in every base URL is the subdomain selector, and the
  developer portal's interactive explorer lets you set it per session. There is no
  shared public sandbox, no test-tenant self-signup and no published test data: a
  staging environment is provisioned for a client alongside their production tenant,
  and credentials for either require an Origami account. Nothing below is invented —
  the environment matrix is published verbatim on the portal.
self_serve_sandbox: false
test_credentials_published: false
test_data_published: false
separation_model:
  style: per-environment host
  pattern: https://{environment}.origamirisk.com/OrigamiApi
  note: >-
    The {environment} value is a manual placeholder the caller must set explicitly; it
    controls only the subdomain. The value is "sticky" for the remainder of a portal
    session and can be changed at any time by clicking it.

eu_caveat: >-
  EU environments change the registrable domain, not just the subdomain. The
  interactive API explorer and its generated code samples substitute only the
  {environment} subdomain and will not switch origamirisk.com to origamiriskeu.com, so
  EU requests cannot be executed from the explorer without editing the base URL. The
  documented workflow is to build the request in the explorer, copy the generated code
  sample, rewrite the host, then execute it with curl, Postman or any HTTP client.

  note: >-
    Every reference page carries a "Try It!" console with a credentials panel (Token
    header) and generated code samples. Executing a call still requires a real token
    against a real environment.
sla_note: >-
  The 99.9% availability requirement in Origami's SLA applies only to the production
  environment and explicitly not to staging.
