When it comes to managing complex data collection workflows, making changes in a live environment can feel risky. What if you break something? What if your users are impacted? That’s exactly why we built the Zerion Sandbox Environment: a safe, on-demand space for testing, troubleshooting, and improving your forms and integrations without touching your production data.
What Is the Zerion Sandbox?
The Zerion Sandbox is a fully functional replica of your production environment. It includes all of your data, forms, and users, providing a realistic testing ground where you can confidently explore changes, resolve issues, and build new solutions.
With just a few clicks, you can spin up a sandbox that reflects your current or historical production state. Whether you’re troubleshooting a form logic issue or testing how a new API integration behaves, the Sandbox lets you do it all without disrupting your live workflows.
Key Benefits of the Sandbox Environment
Safe Troubleshooting
Replicate production issues in a controlled space. Quickly test fixes and ensure stability before applying them live.
Test Without Consequences
Modify forms, try out new workflows, or test integration updates without affecting real-time data or operations.
Multiple Snapshots
Need to test different scenarios? You can create multiple sandboxes from your production environment, each with its own version of data and form structures.
Real Data Context
Unlike static test environments, the Zerion Sandbox provides live or historical snapshots of your actual data and user configurations, helping you troubleshoot more accurately and effectively.
Use Cases for the Zerion Sandbox
- Form Testing: Adjust logic, formatting, or calculations and preview how changes will behave.
- Integration Testing: Connect external systems and validate API workflows without the risk of breaking existing integrations.
- Troubleshooting: Recreate reported issues using real data scenarios and test resolutions in isolation.
- Team Training: Onboard new admins or team members by letting them practice in a safe environment.
