## Frequently asked questions

### Does exporting publish a campaign or issue prizes?

No. You host the files. Local draws are editable demonstrations; real allocation, inventory and redemption require a merchant backend.

### Does a valid JSON sample prove the live API works?

No. A schema checks that sample only. Runtime binding, browser policies, authentication and actual server outcomes need staging tests.

### Can a cross-origin API use the shop login automatically?

Not necessarily. The export uses same-origin credentials, and iframe cookie restrictions also matter. Verify the actual deployment rather than assuming CORS enables a session.

### Can retry protection or a screenshot certify a fair draw?

No. Retrying an unresolved request on the current page is not persistent identity or replay prevention. Static images cannot certify odds, allocation or backend correctness.
