Can I just get an API key please

[JC5]

kthxbye

[JC5]

Alright, and now with less frustration.

So I realized this week that bunq has changed the way their API's work. I cannot access the sandbox anymore. The bunq php kit doesn't work anymore when pointing to the sandbox and applying an API key. OK, that's a problem but nothing we can't fix, right?

According to the helpdesk I'm supposed to use Tinker. Tinker has no instructions except to run some bash script from the web. Luckily it turns out that this script clones a git repository and has some example code. But that doesn't help me at all. I already have code that works. I'm not a paying bunqer (I'm in the old 1 euro program) so I can't get a production key. But I shouldn't have to test against production anyway.

So what do I do to access any kind of sandbox environment? I should not have to use different libraries to access the sandbox vs. accessing the production environment, right? So what do I do now?

Thanks.

Trying to get access to the bunq API has been a very frustrating experience so far and as cool and hip as you are, being a startup and all, I would really appreciate some common sense and stability.

How is the little menu that appears after running the bash command no instructions ?

Maybe we can add a little text that say Run any command to generate sandbox API key. Feel free to make a PR for this tho.

All you do is run any command and a bunq-sandbox.conf is generated in that folder with credentials :)

Yes, that would be helpful. I appreciate that I no longer need the "service" desk to do this for me.

I've played around with it, but I'm not sure what I can do to fix this.

[OGKevin]

My experience with these type of environments is that the IP address does not match for some network setup related issue that i did not manage to solve yet. Same issue happens when running CI test (Travis) on the php SDK.

I would suggest to run this on the host instead of inside a container, or try and fix the network issue where that causes the IP miss-match.

[OGKevin]

Wait, it seems that sandbox is broken indeed. Looking into it.

[OGKevin]

Should be fixed. Might be that you will still run in the container issue i explained above tho.

[JC5]

I'm sorry Kevin, completely forgot to give you feedback. Your solution worked and I got my key. Thanks for the quick fix!
