Do you have a sandbox that I can access?

We do have a sandbox environment for testing. Our sandbox environment requires a separate set of secure credentials, which you can obtain from your Change Healthcare representative. Please fill out the information in the access to sandbox page and our team will provide you a client_id and client_secret to access a sandbox account.

After receiving your client_id and client_secret for our sandbox environment, you can test the APIs in our interactive documentation by using an application, such as Postman or test APIs using your own development console.

  • The sandbox end point URL for authorization token is as follows:
    https://sandbox.apigw.changehealthcare.com/apip/auth/v2/token/

BEARER TOKEN LIFESPAN

The lifespan of a Bearer token is one hour (3600 seconds) for both sandbox and production environments.

We recommend automating transactions to use the tokens generated over the token lifespan. Obtaining tokens for each transaction is less efficient and does not improve the security criteria for any transactions.
