What Is Salesforce Sandbox Preview?

A Salesforce sandbox can be either preview or non-preview. In the context of Salesforce releases, ‘preview’ means that we can preview our changes before going live. Similarly, Salesforce makes the new features of an upcoming release available in a preview sandbox six weeks before the actual production release. This allows Salesforce administrators to gain early access to new features and test their configurations before the major production upgrade.

For Salesforce Spring ’24 release, sandbox preview window is set to begin on January 5th, 2024. To seize this opportunity, If your sandbox isn’t on preview instance then you should have an active sandbox on preview instance before January 4th, 2024. You may also access Salesforce Preview Guide.
