Sandbox list

This list supports the enhanced lists interface. Learn more about using enhanced lists.

A sandbox is a copy of your production environment that you can use for testing or training purposes without affecting the data or configuration of your production environment.

You can view and manage your list of sandboxes in the Sandboxes page.

If you have a small company, you can manage your sandboxes through the Sandboxes page. There's a company size restriction for sandbox self-service. As your company grows, you might lose the ability to access the Sandboxes page. If this happens, you’ll need to log a provisioning case to add, delete, or refresh sandboxes. To log a provisioning case, go through the usual steps to log a support case but choose the Feature Request option.

Go to Company > Admin > and select Sandboxes. The sandboxes page appears.

From this page you can create, log in, refresh, and delete sandboxes, and view and edit sandbox details.

In a multi-entity distributed environment, access to sandboxes is limited to logging in directly from the sandbox login page or sliding in directly from the console.

The following table describes each field on the sandboxes page.
