Production Environment Setup

This guide outlines the process for transitioning your integration from the sandbox environment to production.

​

Production Readiness Checklist

Before requesting production access, ensure your integration meets these requirements:

• All critical API endpoints have been tested in sandbox
• Error handling is implemented for all API responses
• Webhook receivers are properly configured and validated
• Security measures are in place (TLS, API key protection, etc.)
• Compliance requirements are implemented (KYC, AML procedures)
• User flows have been tested end-to-end
• Monitoring and alerting systems are configured

​

Production Certification Process

​

Production Access Request

To request production access:

1. Log in to your tenant dashboard
2. Navigate to “Production Access” section
3. Complete the production readiness assessment
4. Submit required documentation:
   • Integration test results
   • Security assessment
   • Compliance procedures documentation

​

Production Credentials

After approval, you’ll receive:

• Production API Key & Secret
• Production Dashboard Access
• Production Webhook Secret Keys
• Support Contact Information

​

Production Environment Configuration

​

Base URLs

Use the following base URLs for all API calls in the production environment:

API Base URL: https://api.finhub.com/v2
Authentication URL: https://auth.finhub.com/v2
Webhook URL: https://webhook.finhub.com/v2

​

Environment Configuration

Update your environment configuration to use production credentials:

# Example environment variables
FINHUB_API_KEY=your_production_api_key
FINHUB_API_SECRET=your_production_api_secret
FINHUB_API_URL=https://api.finhub.com/v2

​

Security Requirements

In production, additional security requirements apply:

1. IP Whitelisting: Register your server IP addresses
2. Mutual TLS: Implement certificate-based authentication
3. Request Signing: All requests must be cryptographically signed
4. Rate Limiting: Adhere to production rate limits

​

Production Support

Once in production, you’ll have access to:

• Dedicated support channel
• Production incident response team
• Regular maintenance notifications
• Performance monitoring dashboard
