Steps to send your first request and get a successful response.

Before accessing Sandbox to make your first API call, you should contact TabaPay to get set up with your specific use case.

A TabaPay Representative will assist you in the boarding process, and you should receive an email invitation to a designated cloud storage folder with information that will allow you access to Sandbox.
