Hi there. Are you aware of the distinction between sandboxes and test mode?

#

https://docs.stripe.com/sandboxes

vernal plover Nov 7, 2025, 5:22 PM

#

Hi, I read that sandbox will replace testmode, but currently sandboxes doesn't support all feature of testmode

#

My database was built before sandboxes, that's why I'm using testmode

thin pilot Nov 7, 2025, 5:24 PM

#

Yeah, I understand, I'm still using testmode for the most part myself.

But, as far as I'm aware you have to use Sandboxes to test v2 Accounts and I doubt we'll ever roll that out for testmode since sandboxes are meant to replace test mode entirely

#

ok, fair enough, but we need a tool to migrate testmode to sandbox. Is it in development?

thin pilot Nov 7, 2025, 5:27 PM

#

You mean to bring all your testmode data to sandboxes? I haven't heard of something like that, but I can check.

We do offer a 'copy your account' function when creating a new sandbox, but that is limited to settings and some business data

#

Yes, bring all testmode data (customers, connected accounts, payments...) to a sandbox. 'Copy your account' will copy livemode, correct?

thin pilot Nov 7, 2025, 5:30 PM

#

That's right.

#

Doesn't look like there's a way (or as far as I can tell a plan) to support migrating existing test data to a sandbox. You'll need to recreate whatever you need from test mode in a sandbox via the API

crazy

#

Is there a way to export connected accounts and import them to a sandbox?

#

At least to have the same account id as I have in the database
