What is the difference between an API and an API Product?
API stands for Application Programming Interface, which is a software intermediary that allows two applications to talk to each other. An API product bundles resources (such as API proxies) in order to provide a specific level of access and functionality for client app developers. On the other hand an API product typically specifies a list of API proxies, along with access limits, API key approval method, and other configuration that should be in place for all of the bundled proxies.
Is the data in the Riyad Access real data?
No, all the data in our sandbox is test data and does not contain any real data. The Riyad Access data is designed to provide a sample of what can be expected in production environment to provide a valid test scenarios for your system.
What is the difference between the sandbox URL and production URL?
A sandbox URL is a testing environment so that the live data is not manipulated and it consists of the test parameters. Whereas a Live URL consists of legitimate parameters of the active/working environment.
Do I need to register or onboard to trial an API?
The mocking service enables you to try out our APIs directly from the Riyad Access. You don’t need to become a registered member or provide any credentials to interact with the mocking service. Once you are interested in consuming any of our API product(s), you will then be required to register and subscribe to the selected API product(s) which will initiate a partner onboarding process.

Do I need a contract to subscribe to an API?

What is the cost of using the APIs?
There is no cost currently to try out our APIs using the Mocking service. Once you have subscribed to the production environment, the API Product Owner will engage your team to discuss next steps and any pricing that may be applicable.
