Types of Sandboxes in Salesforce

What is Sandbox?
Sandbox is a copy of the production organization. You can create multiple copies of your organization in separate environments for different purposes such as development, testing and training, without compromising the data and applications in your production organization.




















Following are the different types of Sandboxes in Salesforce

Developer Sandbox: A Developer sandbox is intended for development and testing in an isolated environment. A Developer Sandbox includes a copy of your production org’s configuration (metadata).

Developer Pro Sandbox: A Developer Pro sandbox is intended for development and testing in an isolated environment and can host larger data sets than a Developer sandbox. A Developer Pro sandbox includes a copy of your production org’s configuration (metadata). Use a Developer Pro sandbox to handle more development and quality assurance tasks and for integration testing or user training.

Partial Copy Sandbox: A Partial Copy sandbox is intended to be used as a testing environment. This environment includes a copy of your production org’s configuration (metadata) and a sample of your production org’s data as defined by a sandbox template. Use a Partial Copy sandbox for quality assurance tasks such as user acceptance testing, integration testing, and training.

Full Sandbox: A Full sandbox is intended to be used as a testing environment. Only Full sandboxes support performance testing, load testing, and staging. Full sandboxes are a replica of your production org, including all data, such as object records and attachments, and metadata. The length of the refresh interval makes it difficult to use Full sandboxes for development.

Disable Document Download in Salesforce

Disable downloads for certain users based on the name of the file uploaded to Salesforce. We can use the following example code inside of a Apex class. This code essentially prevents files whose file name starts off with Kaipu- from being downloaded by anyone whose user role’s developer name is not Kaipu_Sales. Modify this code to suit your own purpose. Based on Role: public class ContentDownloadHandlerFactoryImpl implements Sfc.ContentDownloadHandlerFactory {    public Sfc.ContentDownloadHandler getContentDownloadHandler(List<ID> ids, Sfc.ContentDownloadContext context) {      // See if the user has the Kaipu Sales role (based on developer name field).      Boolean isSecretUser = [        SELECT Id        FROM UserRole        WHERE ID = :UserInfo.getUserRoleId()          AND DeveloperName = ' Kaip...
