Setting up an environment
Get started with a sandbox environment
Environments
Axle provides sandbox environments for testing and development purposes. The API docs are interactive; once you’re authenticated, you will be able to make
calls to api-sandbox.axle.energy
via these docs.
Please get in touch to setup a new sandbox account.
When you’re ready to roll with a production environment, please get in touch with the team.
Use your credentials to obtain a token
We use token-based authentication, whereby you exchange your API credentials for a token which gives time bound access to specific resources.
To get a token for your session, see the Authentication page, using the username
and password
provided when you created your new sandbox.
This token must be included in subsequent requests as a bearer token:
This token expires after 1 hour. You’ll need to refresh it after that.
