How do I login to a non-production instance (i.e. Sandbox, Pre-Release, etc.), with a session id, or other API versions?
On the Login page, click the ‘Advanced’ radio button for options to login to different API endpoints by using the QuickSelect menu to choose your instance and API version. For example, to login to a sandbox organization, select ‘Login: Sandbox (test)’ and the API version you would like to use. Please be aware that using an old API version could cause unexpected behavior in Workbench as it is designed and tested for the latest API version, but offer this feature as a convenience. To login to any instance with a session id (instead of username and password), paste in the session id into the marked field. Workbench will make a best guess for org’s instance based on the pattern of the session id, but note that this will not work correctly for orgs that were previously migrated to other instances. This fuzzy lookup feature can be overridden or disabled under Settings If you would like to do an advanced login programmatically, please see the FAQs below.
