            Configuring Full Sandboxes

            When you create or refresh a full sandbox, you can configure it to determine what data is copied. Minimizing the amount of data you include speeds up your sandbox copy.

            Required Editions

            Available in: both Salesforce Classic and Lightning Experience
            Available in: Professional, Enterprise, Performance, Unlimited, and Database.com Editions

            • Decide whether to include field tracking history.
            • By default, Chatter data isn’t copied to your sandbox. Chatter data includes feeds and messages. Select Copy Chatter Data if you want to include it.
            • The setup audit trail history of your production org isn’t copied to your sandbox. The audit trail for your sandbox org starts when you begin to use it.
            • Archived activities (tasks and events that aren’t available because they’re over a year old) and user password history aren’t copied.
            Note
            Note Don’t increase the default selections unless special circumstances require it. Large amounts of data can significantly lengthen the time it takes to copy your sandbox.
