How to integrate​

Here's what you can expect for the integration process:

  1. You'll generate an access key which will allow you to access our sandbox environment.
  2. You'll use the delivery simulator and API documentation to build your integration. The development timeline is entirely up to your team's own roadmap. We're here to support you as needed!
  3. Once you've completed development and are ready to go live, you'll submit a quick request for production access.
  4. The DoorDash team will review your request and reach out within a few days to schedule a demo of your finished product.
  5. The DoorDash team will provide an update ASAP on your approval status. Once approved, you can generate a production key and begin requesting real deliveries immediately.
