<h1 id="sandbox-api-testing">Sandbox API testing<a class="headerlink" href="#sandbox-api-testing" title="Permanent link">&para;</a></h1>
<p>Where an exchange provides a sandbox for risk-free integration, or end-to-end, testing CCXT provides access to these.</p>
<p>This document is a *light overview of configuring Freqtrade and GDAX sandbox.
This can be useful to developers and trader alike as Freqtrade is quite customisable.</p>
<p>When testing your API connectivity, make sure to use the following URLs.
<strong><em>Website</em>*
<a href="https://public.sandbox.gdax.com">https://public.sandbox.gdax.com</a>
</strong><em>REST API</em>*

<p>Ensure Freqtrade logs show the sandbox URL, and trades made are shown in sandbox.
** Typically the BTC/USD has the most activity in sandbox to test against.</p>
<h2 id="gdax-old-candles-problem">GDAX - Old Candles problem<a class="headerlink" href="#gdax-old-candles-problem" title="Permanent link">&para;</a></h2>
<p>It is my experience that GDAX sandbox candles may be 20+- minutes out of date. This can cause trades to fail as one of Freqtrades safety checks.</p>
<p>To disable this check, add / change the <code>"outdated_offset"</code> parameter in the exchange section of your configuration to adjust for this delay.
Example based on the above configuration:</p>
<div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><code><span class="w"> </span><span class="nt">&quot;exchange&quot;</span><span class="p">:</span><span class="w"> </span><span class="p">{</span>
