What is Sandbox?

Test Linq’s messaging capabilities in a safe, risk-free environment

The sandbox is a secure testing environment that lets you explore and validate how Linq works before using it in a live setting.

Linq is a messaging infrastructure platform that enables you to bring your agents into channels like iMessage, RCS, and SMS. With the sandbox, you can test drive the Linq API free for 7 days, allowing you to build, simulate, and refine your messaging workflows without impacting real users or production data.

This gives you the flexibility to:

  • Experiment with messaging across supported channels
  • Test integrations and API functionality
  • Validate workflows and automations
  • Ensure everything works as expected before going live

Once you're ready, you can confidently move your setup into a live environment.

 

Who is this for?

The sandbox is ideal for:

  • Developers who want to test the Linq API and integrations
  • Businesses setting up messaging workflows before launch
  • Teams that want to train agents in a safe environment
  • Anyone who wants to explore Linq’s features without risk

How to get started

  1. Sign up for the Linq sandbox subscription
  2. Access your sandbox environment
  3. Connect your preferred channels (iMessage, RCS, SMS)
  4. Start testing messaging, workflows, and API functionality
  5. Review and refine your setup during the 7-day trial

Once testing is complete, you can upgrade to a live plan and deploy your workflows.

Common FAQs

1. Is the sandbox free?
Yes, the sandbox is available as a free 7-day trial so you can test the Linq API and features.

2. Can I send real messages to customers from the sandbox?
The sandbox is designed for testing, so messaging may be limited or simulated. It’s not intended for live customer outreach.

3. Will my sandbox data carry over to production?
No, sandbox and live environments are separate. You’ll need to reconfigure or deploy your setup in the live environment.

4. Are all features available in the sandbox?
Most core features are available for testing, but some production-level capabilities or channel approvals (like iMessage) may require a live account.

5. What happens after the 7-day trial ends?
You’ll need to upgrade to a paid plan to continue using Linq in a live environment.

6. Do I need technical experience to use the sandbox?
While developers will benefit most, non-technical users can still explore features and workflows with basic guidance.
