JIRA Sandbox?

[Pete Jones]

Hi,

I am new to JIRA and am using it an commercial environment.  Is there a sandbox that I could use to try some stuff out (I would rather experiment in a safe place than risk fouling up my employers projects)?

Any suggestions would be appreciated

Thanks

are you using cloud or server? You can always standup a new instance as a trial or pay $10/mo for up to 10 users. Server used to provide a development instance w/ purchased but unsure if that is still the case TBH.

If you have Jira cloud you can also have a free development environment for a single user:

And what about if you are using server version (JIRA Server)?

I clicked on the link above and it's for a 7 day free trial.  I need a long-term cloud instance for maybe 2-3 people to test out Integrations.

I just clicked the link above, and it is "free forever".  No trial limitations.

is this for cloud only?  is there a data center option too?  its asking for my webpage right off the bat with the link.

[David Mitchell]

It's asking you to enter the name of the site you want for your newly created cloud site.  You would enter something like: yournamehere.atlassian.net

[Tiffany J]

correct except I want to use this with data center.  So I don't want to set up a cloud site for it to exist on.

[David Mitchell]

Okay.  In the context of Data Center, if you want what would be referred to as a "sandbox" environment, you would have to work with your admins to have a separate non-production installation set up for that purpose.

The discussion here is around how to spin up a free cloud-instance for testing.  The process discussed here is not something you could do with Data Center.  Additionally, the Premium level cloud products have a built-in feature referred to as a "sandbox".  That feature also exists only in cloud and is not incorporated into Data Center.

Hi all,

My name's Matt and I work on the Atlassian cloud product team.

Whilst I think Jack's answer is what you might be after, I just wanted to pop by and say that sandboxes are now available to Premium and Enterprise customers. For more information about how they work, please read: https://support.atlassian.com/organization-administration/docs/manage-product-sandboxes/.

Cheers,

Matt

@Matt Tse Where would the Sandbox for the Portal be? We would like to test through the action of the external customer, not the internal agent.

Thanks! -AS

Hi @AS ,

I'm assuming by Portal you're referring to the JSM Customer Portal capability? If so, you would need to first create a JSM sandbox and then you can test the portal functionality from the perspective of an external customer.

@Matt Tse  - Are there any costs associated with Premium Cloud sandbox usage please?

[Jack Brickey]

No it is included with premium subscription.o  

[AS]

Thank you everyone. I was able to find the sandbox portal link inside the details of the sandbox project. Appreciate the response and support.
