What it is
A feature flag is a runtime toggle that enables or disables functionality without a deploy. It lets a platform roll a feature out carefully and switch it off instantly if needed.
On the public API
Some public endpoints are flag-gated. The Slice billers endpoint is the clearest example: when the flag is off it returns a clean, empty/unavailable response rather than an error. Write integrations to call flag-gated endpoints unconditionally and render gracefully when no data comes back. See Feature flags and availability.
Frequently asked questions
Why does a flag-gated endpoint return no data?
Because its feature is currently switched off. The route stays live; only the data is gated. Treat the empty state as normal.
