Important Test Hub Updates

Starting on November 7th, 2023, our test Hub URL will be changing from anth-ja77-lc-dev-42d5.uc.r.appspot.com to sandbox.localcontextshub.org. This change to a new domain will allow all instances of the Hub to be consistent. 

The anth-ja77-lc-dev-42d5.uc.r.appspot.com URL will be deactivated on November 7th, 2023.

You can now use the sandbox.localcontextshub.org link to login to the test Hub! The official Hub will still be accessible at localcontextshub.org.

In the new sandbox location you will:

  • Still be able to login with the same credentials you’ve used on this site.
  • Retain all your test accounts and Projects created on or before October 20th, 2023 PT.

This will affect the test API in the following ways:

If you are using any of these links directly in your API connections, please make sure to update them.

The Local Contexts team appreciates user questions and feedback as we continue to develop the Hub into a useful tool! Please get in touch with us by emailing support@localcontexts.org.

The Local Contexts Hub is a web portal that allows Indigenous communities to customize the Local Contexts Traditional Knowledge and Biocultural Labels, and institutions and researchers to generate Local Contexts Notices. For more about Local Contexts and the Hub, visit our Blog.
