GitLab's subscription to Zendesk includes a Sandbox environment, which is intended to be used as a testing ground (staging/dev area) for all major changes to the support portal prior to deploying those changes to the production instance of Zendesk. Operations test changes or wanting to test your own, it is important to know the ins and outs of the sandbox.
With the Sandbox instance, we only have 50% of the seats our production Zendesk instance has available. As such, not every person has a Sandbox account. To request one, please utilize an access request issue to have one provisioned. Please make sure to include:
The provisioner for these requests will be the Support Operations Manager (@jcolyer).
To help both facilitate easy testing and keep the sandbox in a clean state, Support Operations has created some test organizations and users you can use. Whenever possible, please utilize these organizations and users to test "end user" experiences. Note: These users, roles and organizations currently only exist for the Global Support Portal Sandbox.
