# Vault APIs and Region

If  the API is being used with a vault located in a region other than the US, the URL needs to be updated to match the region where the vault is hosted.

For example:

* If the vault in use is a US vault, then the user can replace the words 'sandbox' and 'live' within the URL to appropriately route. 
* If the vault in use is an EU or AP vault, then the URL needs to be updated to the corresponding region:

For Europe:

* <https://api.sandbox-eu-1.verygoodvault.com>
* <https://api.live-eu-1.verygoodvault.com>

For Asia/Pacific

* <https://api.sandbox-ap-1.verygoodvault.com>
* <https://api.live-ap-1.verygoodvault.com>
