# General endpoints
In the General section you can:
* Set your production and staging endpoints
* Choose which one you want to use now
* Select the content type of our requests

## Status
You can select which endpoint you want to use: Staging or Production. Setting the status to production does not make your integration live for all merchants—it is merely lets you switch between 2 different endpoints. If you do not have a staging endpoint, you can have the same URL in both endpoint fields.
## Production endpoint
Set the endpoint that you want to use as a base for all requests when the status is set to Production. We recommend putting your merchant-facing endpoint here, for example *lmdprovider.app/api/v1\_0*.
## Staging endpoint
Set the endpoint that you want to use as a base for all requests when the status is set to Staging. We recommend putting your development endpoint here, for example *test.lmdprovider.app/api/v1\_0*.
### Note
You can override the base URL in each request if you need to.
## Content type
We support 2 content types:
* application/json
* application/x-www-form-urlencoded
We will use this content type for all requests, and we do not support different content types depending on the request yet.
Now that you’ve set up your general endpoints, let’s take a look at authentication.
