AI Agent for Salesforce Sandbox Post-Refresh Automation

The Challenge

After every sandbox refresh, admins must manually reactivate scheduled jobs, update external endpoints to point to sandbox URLs, mask sensitive data, and adjust email deliverability settings. This repetitive process can take hours and is prone to missed steps.

How Clientell Automates This

Clientell AI generates SandboxPostCopy Apex scripts that automate all post-refresh tasks. Scheduled jobs are reactivated, endpoints are updated, sensitive data is masked, and email settings are adjusted automatically every time a sandbox is refreshed.

How It Works

1. 1

   Define post-refresh tasks

   List all tasks that need to happen after a sandbox refresh, such as reactivating specific scheduled jobs, updating named credentials, masking email addresses, and adjusting custom settings.

2. 2

   AI generates PostCopy script

   Clientell AI produces a SandboxPostCopy Apex class that implements each of your post-refresh tasks, handling them in the correct order with appropriate error handling.

3. 3

   Review generated script

   Review the Apex script to verify it covers all required tasks, handles edge cases, and follows your organization's coding standards.

4. 4

   Deploy and register script

   Deploy the SandboxPostCopy class to production and register it with your sandbox definitions so it runs automatically on every future refresh.

Frequently Asked Questions

What types of post-refresh tasks can be automated?

Common tasks include reactivating scheduled Apex jobs, updating custom settings and named credentials, masking or anonymizing PII data, adjusting email deliverability, and disabling outbound integrations.

Does the script run automatically after every refresh?

Yes. Once deployed and registered with the sandbox definition, the SandboxPostCopy class executes automatically each time that sandbox is refreshed.

Can I have different post-refresh scripts for different sandbox types?

Yes. You can create separate SandboxPostCopy classes for developer, developer pro, partial, and full sandboxes, each tailored to the specific needs of that sandbox type.
