Is it possible to initialize/delete my Marketo setup after syncing with Salesforce if I use Sandbox feature?
I want to test Salesforce integration with my test Salesforce instance before using my production Salesforce data in case something goes wrong.

The marriage of Marketo and Salesforce is monogamous and eternal. Once you have synced your Marketo instance with any SFDC instance (or any other CRM for that matter), you cannot switch that Marketo instance to a different SFDC instance (or other CRM).

If you need to test this out, you must have a Marketo Sandbox and a SFDC Sandbox.

This should be improved.  Hitoshi you might upvote this idea: http://community.marketo.com/MarketoIdeaDetail?id=08750000000IQgdAAG

Nicole, so if I have a Marketo Sandbox and SFDC Sandbox, I can test Marketo and Salesforce integration without impacting my production instance of Marketo and SFDC?

We have have several SFDC Sandbox instances so we just need to create Marketo Sandboxes?

Hi Hitoshi: Yes, you need two completely separate Sandboxes for testing.
