I’m new to Free Agent, but almost certainly going to move to it to
replace my homegrown cups’n’stickytape billing system.
The API is really promising, I am writing some REST client bits to let
my existing system submit timeslips to FA to help make the transition
clean.
I was wondering if there’s a sandbox or test environment that I can
aim at? Since I’ve already ‘live’ stuff in FA I’m a bit reluctant to
mix my tests with real data.
We don’t currently have a Sandbox for testing out the API so as Mike
says the best thing to do is to sign up for a Free Trial and play
around with that.
I like the idea of having a Sandbox account though, along the same
lines as our demo accounts.

Create a trial account and use that. Olly might extend it for you for
a short time if you ask nicely
Otherwise once you’re happy with the API use you own account so you
have realistic data to play with.

P.S. Olly, any chance of bank account entry query? :)On Nov 21, 9:24 am, lemon zom...@gmail.com wrote:

You know that would be a really great idea. You could use a batch
script to restore the database with fresh data at the end of, say,
every day. And then just let users log in and “fool around” with the
data/api in real time.
