when is sandbox snapshot date field value updated

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

The Sandbox Snapshot Date field value is updated when a sandbox refresh is initiated. The snapshot is taken from the production environment at the start of the day (12 am) when the refresh is initiated. This means that any changes made in the production environment after the snapshot is taken will not be included in the refreshed sandbox. For example, if you initiate a sandbox refresh on a Sunday, the snapshot will include all changes made in the production environment up until 12 am on Sunday. Any changes made after this time will not be included in the refreshed sandbox. It's also important to note that the snapshot time is based on the local server time, which may vary depending on your location. Therefore, it's recommended to plan your sandbox refreshes accordingly to ensure that all necessary changes are captured in the snapshot. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
