Feature Request: Reusely Sandbox Account Environment

We’d like to propose the creation of a Reusely Sandbox Environment, designed as a safe testing and customization space for users to experiment with workflows, notifications, and other platform settings without affecting live production data.

Proposed Implementation

Domain:

A dedicated subdomain such as sandbox.reusely.com to host the sandbox environment.

Access & Credentials:

• Sandbox login should use the same credentials as the production account for seamless management.

• Clear visual indicators, such as a red border or frame labeled “🧪 SANDBOX,” to distinguish the environment from production.

Functionality

• The sandbox account should be a carbon copy of the production environment, including:

  • Workflows

  • Notifications

  • Branding settings

  • Integrations

• Replace real data (e.g., Inventory, Invoices, Orders) with dummy placeholder data.

Widget Behavior:

• The Buyback widget within the sandbox should not generate real transactions or display embed codes for public use.

• Instead, the sandbox should feature a widget preview inside the dashboard to simulate order creation and customer interaction.

Persistence & Reset Options

• The sandbox environment should be persistent, not automatically reset unless prompted.

• Include a “Reset Sandbox” button, which resets all settings to match the current production state.

Access Tier Recommendation

We recommend making Sandbox Accounts available to Pro-tier plans and above, offering them as a premium feature for businesses that frequently customize workflows or run complex automations.

Benefits

• Safe testing: Experiment with automations and UI changes without production risks.

• Confidence in customization: Validate workflow edits before deployment.

• Faster iteration: Allow teams to trial configurations collaboratively.

• Improved onboarding: New admins or developers can learn safely.
