Sandbox Lifecycle Management

Manage Salesforce sandbox environments through Connect REST API — list inventory, activate or discard completed refreshes, create and refresh sandboxes, and permanently delete sandboxes.

When This Skill Owns the Task

Use platform-sandbox-configure when the work involves:

• Listing or retrieving all sandboxes (GET /sandbox/reports)
• Getting details or status of a specific sandbox by name or by ID (07E prefix)
• Activating a sandbox after a refresh completes (applying the refresh)
• Discarding a completed refresh (keeping existing sandbox data unchanged)
• Permanently deleting a sandbox to free up licenses
• Verifying activation or deletion completed
• Creating a new sandbox (Developer, Developer Pro, Partial Copy, or Full)
• Refreshing an existing sandbox with latest production data

Delegate elsewhere when the user is:

• Cloning a sandbox → Tooling API (SandboxInfo sObject)
