Monigo operates in two modes: test and live. The mode is determined entirely by which API key you use.

​
Switching modes

You switch between modes by changing the API key in your requests. There is no global toggle — each request is independently scoped to the key used. This means you can run test and live traffic simultaneously using different keys, which is useful during gradual rollouts.
  1. Develop locally using mk_test_ keys
  2. Stage using test keys pointed at a staging API
  3. Deploy to production with mk_live_ keys via environment variables
# .env.local
MONIGO_API_KEY=mk_test_...

# .env.production
MONIGO_API_KEY=mk_live_...

​
Resetting test data

Test data can be cleared from the dashboard under Settings → Developer → Reset Test Data. This is useful when you want a clean state before a demo or before going live.
