# Generate Test Transactions

`POST /test-data-generator/transactions`

Generate one or multiple test transactions to test certain endpoints and/or callbacks which deal with transactions.
This endpoint is ONLY available on our sandbox environment and NOT on production. See [documentation](/docs/generate-test-transactions) for details.

Hint: The Pliant web app shows confirmed transactions as pending, since we only switch this status if the transaction is booked/settled. Keep this in mind when using this generator!
