Use this key to try the API. It reads 1st Demo Group, which holds only made-up people, so it is safe to paste anywhere.
Sandbox key
It works only on the demo server:

What the sandbox key can do

  • It has every scope, including contact details, so you see the full shape of every response.
  • It is read-only, like every API key.
  • It has the normal limit of 120 requests a minute, counted for your address only. Other people using the sandbox do not use up your limit.

What changes each week

The demo group is rebuilt every Monday at 04:00 UTC (05:00 in British Summer Time). For a few minutes during the rebuild, calls may fail. Names, events and IDs change, so do not save an ID from the demo and expect it next week. The key itself does not change.

Moving to your own group

When a recipe works, make two changes:
  1. Replace the sandbox key with your own key.
  2. Replace api-demo.scoutworks.app with api.scoutworks.app.
Your own key reads real children’s data. Keep it secret. Never paste it into a shared document, a public page or a chat.
