Sandbox FAQs: Migration to new site

Frequently asked questions about Sandbox migration

Webex Connect Sandbox is now available at sandbox.us.webexconnect.io. Your current Sandbox account accessible at sandbox.imiconnect.io will be decommissioned 30th September 2024. The new date will be reflected in your Sandbox accounts by 30th August 2024.

To ensure a smooth transition, please create an account on the new Sandbox site and migrate your existing configurations, including flows, templates, webhooks, and other settings, before the deadline. This will prevent any disruption to your live applications or services that rely on Sandbox functionalities.
