Is there a way to work with Authava in local development without having to hit production endpoints? I want to be able to test login and session behavior on localhost.

Yes! Authava supports local development in a couple ways:
- You can use the
MockAuthavaClient
class from@authava/client
to simulate session behavior and user authentication locally without any backend calls. - In your tenant dashboard, go to Domain Settings and enable the Local development toggle. This allows
localhost
to be accepted as a valid origin (CORS-friendly) while developing.
⚠️ We do not yet have a dedicated sandbox environment for heavy testing, but this is on our roadmap.
When you go live or enter production, make sure to disable the Local development setting to enforce strict origin validation and protect user sessions.
