Refresh a Cloned Sandbox (Beta)

- Next to the name of the sandbox you want to refresh, clickRefresh.
- Review the name and description, and edit them if needed.
- Review the Create From value, which is the source org for the refresh. If you don’t want to refresh the cloned sandbox using its original source org, select a different sandbox or your production org.A cloned sandbox refreshes from its source org and retains the source org’s sandboxlicense type. If a sandbox’s source org has been deleted, the clone refreshes from yourproduction org.
- If you want to activate your sandbox immediately after you refresh it, selectAuto Activate. In this case, you don’t receive an activation email.
- To run scripts after each creation and refresh for this sandbox, specify an Apex class that extends the SandboxPostCopy interface. The Apex class you specify must exist in your source org.
- Click Create.
- Refreshing your sandbox can move it to a different Salesforce instance. For example, the sandbox can move from CS40 to CS50.
