Build with confidence: test keys and safe retries
Test keys check everything without sending, special test numbers show each error on purpose, and an Idempotency-Key header makes retries safe.
Two things make building on the Avox API calmer.
- NewTest keys (they start with avx_test_) run every check but never send. Responses say they're a test, so your code can tell.
- NewSpecial test numbers return each kind of error on purpose, so you can see how your system handles them.
- NewSend an Idempotency-Key header with a request, and a retry with the same key won't send the message twice. A replay says so in the response.
- ImprovedEvery request your keys make is listed on the API logs page, with a CSV export.
When something does go wrong, each error comes with a stable code, a message and a link to the docs page that explains it.
