At Accoil, we know that successful analytics starts with getting things right from the beginning. That’s why we offer a Sandbox Account—a free, isolated space where you can test your setup, experiment with new data models, and configure products before going live.
What Is a Sandbox Account?
A sandbox account is a safe, internal environment available to all paying Accoil customers. It’s designed for testing and prototyping without impacting your production data or analytics setup.
You can use it to:
Explore and test new data schemas
Simulate real user behavior
Set up and validate product tracking configurations
Trial new features or product setups before they go live
How to Access your Sandbox
Sandbox accounts are created on request. If there is no sandbox account available simply send us a note via the support chat.
Two Ways to Use the Sandbox
Send Your Own Data
Connect your development environment and simulate live usage by sending test data to your sandbox account.Use Sample Data (Optional)
Prefer to explore without sending data? We can populate your sandbox with realistic sample data so you can experience how Accoil works out of the box.
Let us know how you'd like to set up your sandbox and we’ll help get it ready.
Key Features
Free with most paying Accoil plans
Safe and Isolated: No impact on your production environment
Configurable: Set up products, define features, and build segments as needed
Transferable: Migrate your full sandbox product setup to production when you’re ready
Fair Use & Rules
To ensure sandbox accounts stay fast and useful for all customers, we apply a few sensible guidelines:
Rule | Description |
No External Connections | Sandboxes are for internal testing only. Connections to external systems (e.g., Slack, webhooks, CRMs) are disabled. |
Data Volume Limits | You can send up to 2× the Monthly Active Accounts (MAAs) of your paid account. If usage exceeds this, we’ll reach out for a quick check-in. |
Event Data Purge Every 30 Days | To keep things lightweight, event data older than 30 days is automatically purged. Configurations, product setups, and segments remain intact. |
Transferable Products | If you set up a product in your sandbox and want to start using it with live data, we can transfer the entire product—including features and segments—into your production account upon request. |
Best Practices
Treat your sandbox like a lab environment: perfect for trial and iteration
Use it to validate integrations and event schema before launching live
You can't rely on it for long-term data storage—event data is automatically removed after 30 days
