# Simulator

Simulators enable you to trigger processes in Sandbox that in Production are triggered from an external action rather than from your application. this way you can test scenarios that otherwise you would only encounter in the Live environment.

*Note: These endpoints are only available on Sandbox and won’t work in the Live environment.*
