How to Login to Sandbox Salesforce

To log in to a Salesforce sandbox, you need to use a modified username and access the sandbox environment through either a My Domain URL or the test.salesforce.com URL. The modified username is your production username appended with the sandbox name. 

Steps to log in to a Salesforce sandbox:

1. Find the correct URL:Use the My Domain login URL for the sandbox, which is recommended for enhanced security, or access the sandbox through https://test.salesforce.com. If using My Domain, the URL will be in the format MyDomainName--SandboxName.sandbox.my.salesforce.com. You can find the My Domain URL in the sandbox's My Domain Setup page. 
2. Use the modified username:The username to log in to the sandbox is your production username with the sandbox name appended. For example, if your production username is user1@acme.com and the sandbox name is test, the sandbox username would be user1@acme.com.test. 
3. Enter the password:Use the same password you use to log in to your production Salesforce organization. 
4. Login:Click the "Log In" button to access the sandbox environment.
