Sandbox account tool

Get working sandbox credentials without leaving the docs. Runs in your browser against the sandbox API.

This tool talks to https://api.cert.tastyworks.com from your browser. Production is not reachable from here. Your password is sent to tastytrade and never stored; the session token is kept in memory and lost on refresh.

1Create a sandbox user

Skip this if you already have one. Sandbox users are separate from your tastytrade account.

Lowercase letters and numbers only. Not your email address.

At least 12 characters.

6Create an OAuth application

7Watch the account streamer

Sign in first.

8Stream market data

Market data does not exist in the sandbox, so this panel takes a DXLink URL and token you supply. Get them from your own production session with GET /api-quote-tokens, which returns dxlink-url and token. Nothing production-shaped is stored or sent by this page.

Short-lived and scoped to quotes. Not your password.

Nothing yet. Connect to start the exchange.

Account creation, funding and OAuth application management are coming next. See Sandbox for how the environment behaves, and OAuth2 for what to do with the credentials.
