Choosing Your Environment

Checkr provides separate environments and API keys for production and staging. Choose the appropriate environment based on your use case.

1

Select the Right Environment

When connecting Checkr to StackOne, you’ll be asked to select an environment.

  • Production — Use for real background checks with actual candidate data. Requires account approval from Checkr.
  • Staging — Use for development and testing with fake data. Free to use, no approval required.
  • Staging environment uses a separate base URL (api.checkr-staging.com)
  • You can switch environments later by creating a new connection

Creating the StackOne Connector Profile

To create the Connector Profile in StackOne for Checkr:
1

Open the connector

Log in to StackOne, open Connectors, and select Checkr.
2

Choose actions and events

  • Click Add Profile.
  • If the connector offers more than one authentication method, set the Auth Method filter to API Key.
  • Select the actions, and any events, to enable for this Connector Profile.
  • Click Continue.
3

Set up authentication

  • Select Authentication Type as API Key.
  • Click Create Profile.
Congratulations! The new Connector Profile now shows up on the connector page. If you created it as a project member rather than an admin, it starts disabled until a project admin enables it. You can now continue to Link Accounts for Checkr.
