Save and manage snapshots of your production and sandbox account configurations to easily roll back changes, inspect configurations, compare environments, and deploy settings. Snapshots are read-only, but you can rename or delete them as needed. This feature helps you maintain control over your account settings and ensures you can revert to previous configurations if necessary.






Location: Admin Center > Account > Sandbox > Snapshots


A configuration snapshot is a read-only version of the account configuration for an
environment, either production or sandbox, at a given time. Admins can save snapshots of
an environment for many reasons, but it's particularly helpful to do so prior to making
changes to your business rules and other configurations so that you can easily roll back
changes that don't work out. Snapshots can also be used to inspect the environments configurations, compare configurations between environments, and deploy configurations from one environment to another.
After a snapshot is saved, you can view, rename, or delete it from the Snapshots page in
Admin Center.
