Test inbound data exchange in Sandbox

Manually create an inbound data exchange transaction and inspect how your integration handles it.

Use inbound Sandbox testing when you want to verify:

  • Manual creation of an inbound data exchange transaction.
  • How your UI and backend handle inbound Travel Rule data.
  • How different input combinations affect the created test transaction.

Test inbound data exchange transaction

To test inbound data exchange, do the following:

  1. In the Dashboard, go to the Transactions in the Transactions and travel rule section.
  2. Click Create sample transaction.
  3. Select Simulate inbound Travel Rule transfer use case.
  4. Fill in the Personally Identifiable Information (PII) fields shown in the form to describe the transaction you want to receive.
  5. [Required] Provide the wallet address and full name.
  6. [Optional] Fill in any additional fields you want to test.
  7. Choose the test VASP shown in the form, if a VASP field is displayed.
  8. Submit the sample transaction.

For this test, you cannot select a pre-define applicant and should fill in the fields manually to define the inbound transaction you want to simulate, including the relevant PII and the available test VASP option shown in the form. You can steer the resulting inbound transaction by changing the values you submit in those fields.

What to validate during testing

For each scenario, verify all of the following:

  • Transaction reaches the expected Travel Rule status.
  • Your system handles the correct webhook sequence.
  • Your UI or internal monitoring reflects the expected lifecycle.
  • Your integration correctly distinguishes intermediate and terminal states.

In particular, confirm that your integration handles:

  • awaitingCounterparty as a pending state
  • unconfirmedOwnership as a decline branch
  • counterpartyVaspNotFound and counterpartyVaspNotReachable as fallback branches
  • finished as the closed state after blockchain linkage
  • cancelled as the closed state without blockchain completion
