ABDM Sandbox

The ABDM Sandbox gives health facilities and health-tech companies access to ABDM's building blocks: the ABHA number service, the consent manager and gateway, the ABHA mobile app and a health information user app. It is available in all states and union territories.

What you get

• Access to the ABDM components to build and test against.
• A staged path: ABHA creation and verification, then linking health records to an ABHA address, then exchanging records between health facilities.
• Live access once the health tech committee is satisfied with your demo.

Who can apply

• Companies building health information providers, health repository providers, health information users or health lockers.
• Existing providers and payers, existing ABDM partners, healthcare service providers and healthcare facility providers have their own routes.
• No stage, revenue or equity condition is stated.

How selection works: you get access after the health tech committee approves your request. You then integrate, pass functional testing and a security audit, and show the result to the committee before going live. Production hosting needs a web application security assessment certificate from a CERT-In empanelled organisation, and a new one after major changes.

How to apply: use the request button on the sandbox site and create an account. The form asks for entity type, GSTIN, product name, website, whether you are registered or licensed to operate in India, and the integration type (ABDM, UHI or NHCX). Queries go to abdm@nha.gov.in.
