FinHub API Integration Environment

Welcome to the FinHub API Integration Environment - the next step in your journey to implementing FinHub’s embedded finance solutions.

​
What is the Integration Environment?

The Integration Environment is a pre-production environment designed for formal testing and validation of your FinHub API implementation. It provides a more realistic simulation of the production environment with stricter security requirements and validation rules.

​
Key Features of the Integration Environment

  • Production-Like Data Flow: Simulates the complete data flow you’ll experience in production
  • Enhanced Security Requirements: Implements the same security protocols as production
  • Formal Testing Support: Designed for comprehensive integration testing and validation
  • Performance Testing: Allows for limited performance and load testing
  • Compliance Validation: Helps ensure your integration meets regulatory requirements

​
Getting Started with Integration

  1. Complete Playground Testing: Ensure your basic implementation works in the Playground environment
  2. Request Integration Access: Contact your FinHub representative to provision Integration environment access
  3. Configure Your Environment: Follow the Integration Configuration guide
  4. Authenticate: Learn how to authenticate in the Integration environment
  5. Manage Sessions: Understand session management for API requests

​
Integration Testing Process

  1. Initial Setup: Configure your environment and authentication
  2. Basic Connectivity: Validate basic API connectivity and authentication
  3. End-to-End Flows: Test complete business flows from start to finish
  4. Edge Cases: Test boundary conditions and error handling
  5. Security Validation: Verify security measures and token handling
  6. Integration Certification: Complete the integration certification process

​
Moving from Integration to Production

Once you’ve successfully tested your implementation in the Integration environment, you’ll be ready to move to Production. See our Production Home for detailed guidance on this process.

​
Playground Reference

For simplified testing and experimentation, you can always return to the Playground Environment.
