Create an On-Demand Sandbox Instance in Control Center

In Control Center, you can create an on-demand sandbox (ODS) instance.

To create an on-demand sandbox, you must have the Sandbox_API_User role with a tenant filter in the format <realm-id>_sbx in Account Manager. For example, to create an ODS instance in the realm abcd, you must have the Sandbox_API_User role with tenant filter abcd_sbx in Account Manager.

  1. Log into Control Center.
  2. Select the realm where you want to add the ODS.
  3. Click Create on-demand sandbox.
  4. Complete the ODS Provisioning Request form.
    • Set the number of hours for the sandbox:
      • 0 (infinite time)
      • 24
      • 48
    • (Optional) Set the Auto Schedule to true.
      When set to true, automatic start and stop actions are activated. You can set the automatic action times via the realm configuration API.
    • Set the resource allocation for the sandbox:
      • Medium (default)
      • Large
      • X-Large
      • XX-Large

        Higher allocations consume more credits.

    • Click Create sandbox.

As the sandbox is generated, the Control Center instance page shows each state change (new, creating, starting, and system up and running).
