Copy this now, it won't be shown again:
Use it as a bearer token:
curl https://dev.somvad.com/conferences \
-H "Authorization: Bearer svk_sbx_…"What your sandbox gives you
Scoped credentials
Your key is tied to an isolated sandbox tenant: no production data, no shared state with anyone else.
Seeded scenarios
A pre-populated desk: lines, hoots, and a conference, so your first call has something real to connect to.
The real control plane
The same API and the same event WebSocket. You build against the contract you'll ship on.
Full documentation

What's real vs simulated
| Real | Simulated |
|---|---|
| The REST contract & response shapes | Media: calls connect against a mock mixer, no live RTP billed |
| The event WebSocket & frame formats | Carrier (PSTN) ingress/egress: no real numbers dialed |
| Auth, roles, and tenant isolation | Recordings: generated fixtures you can fetch and verify |
| State machines & error codes | Presence: scriptable, so you can drive your UI deterministically |
Limits
- Rate limits are tighter than production.
- No real PSTN connectivity and no billable media.
- Sandbox keys never work against a production tenant, and vice versa.
