Environments and Versioning

Use the production v2 endpoint with environment-specific Stepes API keys.

Use the following base URL for production requests.

Base URL

Production https://apis.stepes.com/v2

Send the API key as a bearer token directly to this base URL. A public sandbox is not currently available.

Key Environments

Live and test keys are isolated. Production rejects project-changing requests made with a test key, preventing test credentials from creating production work.

Use GET /capabilities to confirm the key environment and whether project submission, quotes, and webhooks are currently enabled.

Version Boundary

The public major version is part of the URL. The initial release is 2.0.0 within the /v2 compatibility family.

Every response includes:

Stepes-API-Version: 2.0.0
Stepes-Request-Id: <request UUID>

Backward-compatible releases may add optional response properties, event types, languages, service options, and capabilities. Integrations should ignore unknown response properties. A breaking request or response change requires a reviewed versioning decision.
