What is it?
When you create a sandbox, you can now choose the CRM records to copy from production by selecting a primary data source, defining property-based filters, and specifying how many records you need. Choose from supported standard objects (contacts, companies, tickets, and deals) or a custom object.
Why does it matter?
Sandbox record copying used to be based on recently updated records. That often produced a flat or unrepresentative dataset. Now you can start with records that better match the business process or the CRM configuration you need to test.
How does it work?
When creating a sandbox, you can seed your sandbox with a sample of production records of your choice.
- Choose a primary data source: contacts, companies, deals, tickets, or a custom object.
- Use the default filter, or add your own filters and set the number of records to copy. Note: Associated records are copied automatically based on their existing associations.
- Review your selection, then click Create sandbox.
What gets copied
- - Up to 10,000 records per data source object.
- - Associated records: up to 100 per associated object type for each copied record.
- - Engagement records: up to 10 per engagement type (for example, calls, notes, and meetings) for copied records and their associated records.
Note: Records are copied once, when the sandbox is created. To add records later, use import and export.
