Introduction

Introduction

The Patricia Business API is organized around REST. Endpoints have predictable, self-describing URLs. Our API accepts JSON requests and returns JSON responses. It uses standard HTTP status codes, authentication, and methods(POST, PUT, PATCH, GET, DELETE) in their usual ways.

To get started, sign up on Patricia Business, check the settings tab in your dashboard and generate an API key for yourself. Your API keys are in two versions - live and test mode. It's also worthy to note that all transactions done in test mode aren't real transactions and no tangible monetary value is involved.

A test API key follows this pattern pat_sk_test_randomdigit while a live key follows this pattern pat_sk_live_randomdigit

If for any reason you think your API keys have been compromised, please kindly regenerate a new one immediately.

Response & Environment

Please note that if you use your test secret key in initiating any request, all your transactions will be treated as test transactions. When you are ready to go live, please kindly switch to using your live keys.

i.e test keys should be used on your dev and staging environment, while live keys should be used on your production environment.
