Test your implementation

By default, all Evervault Apps have access to the Network Tokens API in Test Mode. Test Mode allows you to test the full merchant enrollment and token creation process without affecting live data. Once you're ready to transition to Live Mode for processing real Network Tokens, please contact our support team at support@evervault.com.

In the aforementioned Test Mode, while you can create network tokens via the API, these network tokens will not be subscribed for updates, and accordingly you will be unable to fully validate your integration. For this purpose, you should leverage a Sandbox, which exposes some additional developer tooling to help you verify your implementation.

The relevant tool in this case is the Simulate API. Using this endpoint you can simulate an update event in accordance with the following typical update events:

• Token deactivation
• A new card expiry has been issued
• A new card number and expiry have been issued.

When simulating new expiry or new card number updates, you can either specify the values you want the card to be updated to, or omit them to have new values auto-generated.

Example Requests

The examples below outline the valid request types accepted by the Simulate API, in accordance with the above scenarios:

Step by Step Guide

1. Create a Sandbox: Start by creating a Sandbox to access the necessary testing tools.
2. Set Up Webhooks: In your app settings, create a webhook and subscribe to the payments.network-token.updated event.
3. Create a Network Token: Use the Network Tokens API to create a network token in your sandbox environment.
4. Simulate an Update: Use your client of choice to issue a request to the Simulate API and observe the update event arriving at your specified webhook.
