Salesforce Sandboxes: Everything You Need to Know

In case you didn't know, a Salesforce Sandbox is a testing environment that replicates a company's Salesforce instance. They allow us to play around with new implementations without the risk of something breaking in the actual org.
But how well do you actually know your way around Sandboxes? In this video, Ben lets you in on everything you need to know about them, so you can be sure you're testing to maximum efficiency.

thanks for the informative video!
Could you share your experience with Full Copy refreshes?
If my sandbox "Last Refresh Request Date" is 8/5/2024 8 am and "Completed On" is 8/8/2024, until what point does it copy the data over?
for our POC, getting data into the new sandbox is critical. so I am not sure, when exactly the data stops copying to the new sandbox. thanks in advance!

Hi there! The data is refreshed from the point you initiate the request. So in this instance, it's 8/2/2024. Hope this helps!

Hi there! Yes, a sandbox is an exact replica of the org you create the sandbox from, including all managed packages.
