How can I make a transcation data in the sandbox?

[Smith]

I'm a normal developer but not a seller. And I want to retrive the
data of the transcation, receipt and so on. But no data. How can I get
them?

[Tim Larson]

I would love to know if this is possible, too.  I ended up creating a real, live shop, listing real live items, and then purchasing them from myself (using a second etsy account I setup), all so that I could see transactions on the developer sandbox area.  If there is a way to see transactional data on the development side without jumping through all of those hoops, I would love to know how.

I ended up using a variation on this -- made friends with an etsy
seller and asked nicely if I could test against her account in the
sandbox.

As far as I know there is no existing test store that developers can
test against.

Can the etsy official team offer a test account for it?

Hi everyone,

We have an * experimental* feature that will let you make a purchase on the sandbox.  Please note that this is still *BETA*

http://www.etsy.com/your/apps/sandboxdata

Some caveats:

* You can only purchase one listing per cart; no multiple-listing orders

* The buyer will be made using your signed-in Etsy account. If this member account does not exist on the sandbox, you will need to sync it first

We realize this is an incomplete solution, and we're working on a much better sandbox environment from top to bottom.  Stay tuned!

Also please note: it's technically against Etsy policy to create dummy shops and purchases (although I certainly understand why you had to resort to this.) Please give this new feature a spin, and if it doesn't work, let us know.
