Retargeting a Sandbox
CLI EQUIVALENT 
si retargetsandbox
If you need to change the project configuration that a Sandbox points to, you can retarget the Sandbox. For example, a developer can change a variant Sandbox to point to a different variant project, or a buildmaster can change a build Sandbox to point to a different build. You can also change the type of project that the Sandbox points to; for example, you can change a normal Sandbox to point to a variant project.
You do not use the Retarget Sandbox command in the GUI to change the project or server for a Sandbox, or to change the location of a Sandbox on the client. To change the project for a Sandbox, you must drop the Sandbox and then create it again with the new project in context. In the CLI, you can use the si retargetsandbox command to specify a different Integrity Lifecycle Manager server for a Sandbox and the si movesandbox command to change the location of a Sandbox on the client.
To retarget a Sandbox, select a top-level Sandbox and click Sandbox > Retarget, then select the project configuration that you want to point the Sandbox to.

Key Considerations
You can only retarget top-level Sandboxes.
You can only retarget to another type of the same project that the Sandbox is currently pointing to.
You can specify a date-based project configuration by using the As Of option to select the project configuration as of a specific date. When a selection is made, the Project Branch option is also available to specify a Branch ID value. For more information, see Working With Date-Based Project Configurations.
