When you first sign up as a Developer with Edlink, you will go through the onboarding process. After creating an app, it will ask you which sandbox sources you would like to access. You can choose from a number of different sandbox options. We do not have all of the supported providers available as a sandbox.
After you have selected a sandbox environment, you will be able to see the newly created sandbox integration under the Integrations tab in your dashboard. Our support team can create sample login credentials for you to use to access the sandbox environment directly (e.g. sign into Edlink's Canvas instance) and test your SSO integration.
Connecting Your Own Sandbox
If you have your own sandbox environment that you would like to use, you can connect it to Edlink. This is useful if you want to:
- Have more control over the data in the sandbox (e.g. managing people, classes).
- See the school administrator onboarding flow first-hand.
We're more than happy to assist you in setting up your own sandbox environment - it only takes about 5 minutes to get connected. Please reach out to our support team at your convenience to get started.
