You can update the sandbox URL to clarify the purpose of your sandbox. For example, if you’ve used the prefix test and want to later change it to preprod, you can change the URL.
If your organization contains units, updating a site URL only changes the web address; it doesn’t move the site to a different unit or change its linked relationship to a production unit.
You can only modify the subdomain part of the URL.
You can update the subdomain up to 15 times. What happens after the URL is updated
If you have multiple sandbox apps in a site, the URLs of all sandboxes in that site will be updated.
After updating the URL, you can reuse the old URL for another sandbox or sandbox site only 30 days after the sandbox site associated with that URL is permanently deleted.
You can give also edit the name of the sandbox unit for easy identification and apply labels to organize them by purpose, team, or environment type.
To update a sandbox URL:
Go to Atlassian Administration. Select your organization if you have more than one.
Select Apps, then App URLs.
In the table, find the sandbox site you want to modify the URL for.
Select Update sandbox URL. You’ll navigate to the App URLs page.
Enter the beginning of the new site URL. You’ll need to enter at least 3 characters. You can use lowercase letters, numbers, and hyphens if they’re in the middle of the name.
Select Continue.
You’ll see the list of sandboxes that will use the new URL. Select Update to confirm you want to change the URLs.
The update may take up to 5 minutes to complete.
