# Environments

Fluide Connect docs and the API playground export from **sandbox** today. Production will use a separate base URL when GA launches.

## Base URLs

| Environment    | Base URL                           | Status                                      |
| -------------- | ---------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------- |
| **Sandbox**    | `https://test.api.fluidehr.com`    | Active — docs export and playground default |
| **Staging**    | `https://staging.api.fluidehr.com` | Internal pre-production                     |
| **Production** | TBD                                | Not yet available                           |

All product APIs share this host. Paths are product-scoped:

| Product | Path prefix                   |
| ------- | ----------------------------- |
| Auth    | `/api/v1`                     |
| HR      | `/api/v1/hr`                  |
| Payroll | `/api/v1/payroll`             |
| Pay     | `/api/v1/payments`            |
| Books   | `/api/v1` (accounting routes) |
| Utils   | `/api/v1/app`                 |

## Switching environments

Use the same request shape in every environment. Only the base URL and credentials change.

Set `FLUIDE_BASE_URL` (or `NEXT_PUBLIC_FLUIDE_API_URL` in the Connect app) to the base URL for the environment you are targeting.
