The sandbox has six test institutions. Sign in to any of them with the username user_good and any password to get a healthy connection with 24 months of sample data.

Other usernames trigger specific states: user_expiring creates a connection that expires in 8 days, user_mfa asks for a one-time code (use 000000), and user_locked returns an institution_error.

You can fast-forward a sandbox connection with POST /v3/sandbox/connections/{id}/advance to see expiring and revoked events without waiting 90 days.
