Developer and Central Sandbox setup checklist
Refer to this checklist of actions to complete to set up your Developer Sandbox or Central Sandbox tenant.
Category |
Task |
Needed for initial copy or refresh? |
---|---|---|
SSO integration |
Reconfigure SSO through submitting a request at Zuora Global Support . |
Yes |
User management |
Update Zuora user emails, or add QA or Developer users as needed. Upon each refresh, the admin must submit a request at Zuora Global Support to reset the password for admin users. If you are a OneID user, follow the instructions on the Zuora One ID Central Sandbox and Developer Sandbox refresh page. |
Yes |
Integrations to external systems |
Update integration endpoints and Zuora API usernames in Zuora for any external systems or integrations that call or receive requests from Zuora, eg:
|
Yes |
Collections |
Update API usernames and tokens, and settings for Zuora Collections. |
Yes |
Hosted Payment pages |
Update keys for hosted payment pages. |
Yes |
Notifications and Callouts |
Update SMTP Settings. |

Billing - Revenue Integration |
If the Billing - Revenue Integration is enabled, submit a request to Zuora Global Support to reconfigure the integration:
|
Yes |
Zuora Workflow |
Review hard-coded callout URLs (not pointed to production) and reconfigure if necessary, and reconfigure authentication tokens. After the central sandbox refresh, you have to reconfigure the workflow run user. The recommended practice is to use global constants to maintain desired URLs since they are scrubbed upon refresh from production. If global constants are configured in the sandbox environment, they persist through subsequent refreshes. |
Yes |
Reconfigure Liquid templates. |
Yes | |
Custom objects |
If you store PII data or external links on custom objects or custom fields, ensure that such data or link is removed or scrubbed. |
Yes |
Bill Run and Payment Run Schedules |
Developer and Central Sandbox refresh does not copy the scheduled Bill Run and Payment Run, so the Bill Run and Payment Run will not work as scheduled after the refresh. |
Yes |
After the initial Central Sandbox refreshes, you have to configure the following settings once, which will subsequently be retained in your Central Sandbox after every refresh.
Tax Engine Configurations (credentials and endpoints)
Notifications (callout base URLs, callout credentials and callout definitions)
