Change the sandbox name

Define a meaningful name for your sandbox to make it easily recognizable when returned in a list or in a log line.

Before you begin

This step assumes you are modifying an existing sandbox and know the sandboxID.

If you did not define a name when you first created the sandbox, the default is sandboxID, a randomly generated string. Follow these steps to create a more meaningful name for the sandbox.

How to

  1. Form a JSON request body including the sandboxId and provide a value for the name. 
    {  
    "sandboxId":"123ab876c-9def4-11e8-a4d6-0242ac110002",
    "name":"mysandbox-123"
}
  2. Issue a PUT request to /sandbox-api/v1/sandboxes/{sandboxId} to confirm the changes.
    You’ll get a 204 response confirming the sandbox has been updated with the changes.
