We do not supply a "test token" but I'd recommend making use of your test workspace! The access token that you use to make API requests is tied to a specific workspace. So you could get an access token for your test workspace, then every API request you make with that token will be for that test workspace. Additionally whenever you are ready to switch to production, all you will need to do is replace the test access token with the production one!

 

You can get additional access tokens by heading to "your workspaces" when you have your app pulled up. Once there if you click on "install app", it will generate a new access token for the workspace you just installed in 👍

 

Hope that helps!
