# Using sandbox templates

# Using sandbox templates {#ariaid-title1}

Release version: Australia  
Updated June 5, 2026  
![](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/portal-asset/ico-clock) 1 minute to read  
Developer Sandboxes templates are being deprecated, and should no longer be
used.  
Note:  
The built-in data generation capability for sandbox templates has been removed. To generate synthetic test data, use AI Data Kit. For more information, see [AI Data Kit](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=now-assist-data-kit-landing&version=australia&pubname=australia-intelligent-experiences&ft:locale=en-US).

Data is shared by default except for Task and CMDB. To use real data from Task and CMDB in sandboxes, make a request for Now Support to configure those tables as Full Copy or Partial Copy. For more information, see [Developer Sandboxes and metadata](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/myNfA0tbFWkr03gPfXBl7Q "Each sandbox provisioned with Developer Sandboxes is an isolated environment within an instance. Developers can build and test in parallel without affecting other work.").
