Integration data

In Integrations, select an application card to open it. The first screen displayed is Home, and the available navigation and information depend on the integrated product.

When you access a Checkout API with Orders or Checkout Pro with Orders application, the header displays its name, integrated product, and identifier. Use this information to confirm that you are working with the correct application before making changes.

Home

Home is the application's first screen. It provides the integration journey, shortcuts to monitoring tools, and resources for configuring and testing the application. The available content is updated based on the selected environment.

Test and production environments

At the top of the screen, you will find the Test / Production selector, which determines the environment and data you are working with.

Test and Production selector highlighted on the Home screen

  • In Test, you will find all the resources needed for the integration development and testing stage, such as test credentials, accounts, cards, and payments. Operations performed in this environment do not affect real data or transactions.
  • In Production, you can manage the resources used to process real operations. If the environment is not active yet, selecting it will display the steps required to enable it.

The selected environment is retained as you navigate through the sections that depend on it. Before viewing information or changing a setting, verify that the selector displays the corresponding environment.

View data and resources for each environment

On Home, contextual data and resources are displayed alongside the integration journey so you can view them without leaving the screen. Depending on the selected environment, you will find:

  • Credentials: displays the Public Key and Access Token for the environment, with options to copy them.
  • Test card: available in the test environment, provides the data required to simulate payments and lets you select the card brand and the result you want to test.
  • Documentation and API Reference: provides direct access to the product documentation and API Reference.

Application settings

Select Edit application to open a separate screen where you can change the application's data and settings. The form is organized into the following sections:

  • Basic data: lets you update the application's logo, name, short name, description, and category.

In the Integrated API field, you can view or change the API associated with the product: Orders or Payments for Checkout API and Orders or Preferences for Checkout Pro. Before saving your changes, verify that the selected option matches the integration you want to implement, as this choice determines the resources and credentials available for the application.
