Request a Sandbox
Rules for Consideration
We are currently in a closed BETA for issuing sandboxes, meaning we are hand-picking projects that best fit early-stage testing within the community. Our application process is for Salesforce Commerce Cloud Developers with Open Source Projects that need a sandbox to test their software.
⚠ PLEASE NOTE ⚠
If you already have the ability to get a sandbox, either as a Salesforce SI or ISV partner, please use that method. This process is for those that have no other method of requesting a sandbox.
The following criteria are required to be considered for a sandbox:
- Project helps the Salesforce Commerce Cloud Community
- Project has a Repository that is publicly accessible ( GitHub, BitBucket, etc. )
- Repository contains an open-source license
- Repository is actively being maintained
- Repository accepts code contributions from the SFCC Community
- Repository does not require contributors to sign a Contributor License Agreement
- Project is not used for a paid or freemium service
- Project does not contain corporate branding, promotions, or advertisements
* - Project does not collect private or privileged information
- Project agrees to follow OpenSFCC Community Guidelines
* Here are some DOs and DON'Ts for branding:
BRANDING DO's
- Project can, and probably should, link back to your Repository
- Repository README can contain Brand Name, Logo, and Info about your organization, including links to the organization's website or custom project-specific page
- Project can have a Brand Name, Logo, and Info about your organization behind a secondary "About the Project" section ( such as a modal, secondary dedicated web page, or output from a specific CLI "info" command )
BRANDING DON'Ts
- Brand Name, Logos and Info about your organization should not be visible for those who are using your Project for its primary purpose
- Project should not contain direct links to an organization or any affiliates
- Repository README should not contain Promotions or Advertisements
DEFINITIONS
- Project: What is used by the SFCC Community when installing your Repository
