USE_SANDBOX_URL

HTTP 400 — Test key on the live URL

A sk_test_ key was sent to the live base URL. Test keys are served by the sandbox at its own URL.

What to do

Send test traffic to the sandbox base URL. Going live changes the base URL as well as the key.

Can I retry?

Not unchanged. Something in the request has to change first — retrying as-is gets the same answer.
