Hi,

I'm developing an application that needs the user presence events, but I can't understand how to create them in the sandbox environment. The existing applications only seem to let me use production. Any ideas?

You first need to create application with required permission and scope in your sandbox. Here is how you can start

https://developers.ringcentral.com/guide/basics/create-app

Once you create the application with required permission and scope like readPresence or editPresence, you can test your application with RingCentral presence API

https://developers.ringcentral.com/api-reference/Presence/

You will get requiered client id and client secret for testing the presence APIs from application dashboard
