What is an account template?

Budgets
Spend limits with alerts and automatic lock or wipe actions.
Permissions
AWS managed, customer managed and inline policies, plus boundaries.
Launch content
Optional IaC, scripts and starter apps deployed into the account.
Reuse and scale
Publish once, then launch for any number of teams and cohorts.

Template library
Every template below is available in Sandbox Studio's prebuilt template library. Use one as-is or customise it.
Governance per template
Each account template carries its own cost controls and permissions, so every kind of sandbox gets rules that fit it. Engineering, data, students and partners get compliant environments without waiting.
Cost controls per template
Budgets, alert thresholds and lock or wipe actions, set for each template.
Permissions per template
Choose the IAM permissions users get once they're inside the sandbox.
Not one global setting
A hackathon and a data science sandbox can run under completely different rules.
Applied at launch
Every account launched from a template gets its settings automatically.
