Sandbox in Jira Data Center

[Lisa Driesse]

Hi there,

For a customer, I'm checking whether Jira Software Cloud or Jira Data Center best fits their needs. Now I'm wondering if it is also possible to use Sandboxes with Jira Data Center.

Please let me know!

Hello @Lisa Driesse

Welcome to the community!

For Datacenter, you can install a separate envirnment with developer licence.

For each Atlassian commertial licence (Atlassian product or addons), you can go to my.atlassian.com and generate the developer licence.

Please visit this KB for more information.

Hi @Lisa Driesse 

Welcome to the Community!

Sandboxes are a feature that only exists for Premium Cloud licenses. The equivalent for Data Center would be standing up a separate environment to use a test/dev environment that mirrors your production environment.

Hi Luis,

Thanks for your quick reply. Regarding to the separate environment, is this within the production data center license? In other words, Do you have to buy another license or can you just create one? 

Thanks in advance!

You don't have to buy another license for a test environment. You can request a development license that is tied to your production license.

I'll also include this document for you which outlines the process for setting up a test environment.
