Sandbox and certification flows

Last reviewed: 2026-04-27 · Owner: Product & Engineering

Goal

Validate an integration in non-production environments before promoting configuration to production tenants.

Prerequisites

  • Sandbox tenant and partner rows distinct from production (synthetic ids only in examples).
  • Certification checklist from your program office (external to this help).

Steps

  1. Exercise sign-in, partner launch, and read-only admin checks in sandbox with scoped actors.
  2. Capture evidence per compliance-evidence workflows when auditors require artifacts.
  3. Promote only after routing and federation summaries match approved baselines.

Verify

  • Sandbox callbacks point to sandbox hosts; no production secrets appear in sandbox configs.
  • Certification sign-off references agreement ids appropriate to your tier.

If it fails

Rollback sandbox changes, compare with golden routing rows, and open an incident if production impact is suspected.
