Using Data Snapshots

Use curated data for predictable results.

Requests made in our Sandbox environment do not go through to the actual servicers. Instead, they return some form of dummy data. It is likely that there will be times you will want the dummy data set up to put the borrower in a position to see benefit from IDR plans. In order to guarantee that you will see the benefit, we have curated a set of snapshots for select servicers for use with Link, Assess, and Enroll workflows. Using any username and password you want will still return dummy data but Snapshots are helpers to set up specific scenarios. Using them is not required.

Using the Snapshots

In order to use the snapshots, simply choose a supported servicer and use the special name that forces the scenario. Depending on which workflow you are testing, you may also need to use specific values to questions to get the desired result. See each section below for the details of setting up the data.
