Developer Documentation

Everything you need to integrate Seversoft's infrastructure into your products — API references, guides, webhooks, SDKs, and more.

🚧 API Currently Under Development

The Seversoft API is actively being built and is not yet available for public access. The documentation sections below reflect what will be available on launch. If you're interested in early access or want to be notified when the API goes live, register your interest below.

API Overview

How Seversoft APIs Work

Seversoft exposes its infrastructure through a RESTful HTTP API. Every request requires an API key passed in the Authorization header. Responses are returned as JSON. We use standard HTTP status codes to indicate success or failure.

Environments

We provide two environments: a Sandbox (for testing, no real transactions) and a Live environment (for production). API keys are environment-specific — sandbox keys will never affect real data.

Authentication

All API requests must include your secret key in the Authorization header as a Bearer token. API keys are generated from your Seversoft dashboard. Keep your secret key confidential and never expose it client-side.

Rate Limits

API rate limits are applied per API key. Exceeding a rate limit returns a 429 Too Many Requests response. Limits and quotas will be clearly defined per endpoint in the full API reference documentation.
