Understanding your test environment - Sandpit
What is the sandpit?
The Sandpit is our test environment. It is designed to give you an opportunity to practice your events and become accustomed to the tool before going live with real suppliers.
In the Sandpit, you can create an event, put it live to our Sandpit participants, and work through the event from a supplier perspective.

The sandpit is a test environment where you are only allowed to invite participants within the same sandpit as this gives you the opportunity to see your event from the perspective of your participants.
