How can I get a dedicated demo/test environment for my organization (not SKY Developer Cohort)?
Hi Everybody!
I’m currently working with a demo environment that is not owned or managed by my organization, and I would like to set up my own dedicated demo/test environment for our use.
At the moment, I have access to a demo site (for example: 32158.myschooldemo.com/app?svcid=edu#login), which appears to be linked to the SKY Developer Cohort. However, this environment is not under our organization’s control.
In my Blackbaud profile, I can see two organizations:
- Bullfrog Technologies (our organization)
- SKY Developer Cohort
On the main dashboard, only one organization is shown, but through the Dashboard, I can access the SKY Developer Cohort, which redirects me to the demo environment mentioned above.
What I’m trying to achieve is:
- Get my own demo/test environment for Bullfrog Technologies
- Have full control over configuration, users, and data
- Avoid dependency on shared/demo cohort environments
Could someone please guide me on:
- How to request or provision a demo/test environment for my organization?
- Whether this requires contacting Blackbaud support or going through a specific program?
- Any prerequisites (subscriptions, approvals, etc.) needed to set this up?
I’ve attached screenshots for reference to better explain the current setup.
Thanks in advance for your help!
