Novita Sandbox currently runs in two US regions: us-phx-1, the default v2 region, and us-virginia-1, the legacy v1 region. The SDK and CLI use us-phx-1 unless you point them at another region with the NOVITA_DOMAIN environment variable or the SDK’s domain option.

​
Details

  • Secrets, Snapshots, and other newer features are available only in v2 regions.
  • Sandbox URLs include the region domain: https://{port}-{sandboxId}.us-phx-1.sandbox.novita.ai.
  • You can also pass domain (for example domain="sandbox.novita.ai") when creating or connecting to a sandbox instead of setting NOVITA_DOMAIN.

​
How to

Use the default region — nothing to configure. To target the legacy v1 region, set the domain before running your code:
