Production Review
Move from sandbox into production through consent review, billing setup, webhook verification, and customer-data safeguards.
Production review should stay visible as a real go-live queue, not a hidden internal checklist.
The production lane should foreground the checks that actually decide whether traffic can go live.
The page should point straight to the current release lane instead of sending the user through multiple summaries.
The goal is simple: confirm that the organization can operate the API safely and explain how it uses the returned data.
Teams should keep sandbox running in parallel for test traffic and schema validation while live traffic moves through production only.
That first live operating pass matters more than the paperwork because it proves the organization can actually run the integration cleanly.
Production review should read like an active queue, not a passive policy page.
The live review page should show what still stands between the workspace and production.
The operator should know the exact remaining gate before launch.
Once production clears, the operator should move into the dashboard instead of back into docs.
Production review should keep the billing and usage lane visible because it becomes active immediately after go-live.
The same release lane should point straight into audit and reporting once traffic is live.
Production review checks the declared use case, consent handling, webhook verification, billing ownership, audit readiness, and internal access controls.
The goal is simple: confirm that the organization can operate the API safely and explain how it uses the returned data.
Once the review clears, the workspace receives production keys, production billing, and the full dashboard and export controls tied to that environment.
Teams should keep sandbox running in parallel for test traffic and schema validation while live traffic moves through production only.
After approval, set alert thresholds, confirm webhook health, review the first live audit entries, and give finance owners access to usage and invoicing.
That first live operating pass matters more than the paperwork because it proves the organization can actually run the integration cleanly.
