Demo Packs
Demo Packs are curated bundles of system templates designed for specific personas. Pick a pack and deploy all its templates at once — creating fully configured mock simulations in one click.
Overview
Each pack includes:
- A set of pre-selected system templates (e.g., a CRM API, Identity Provider, and Payment Gateway)
- Metadata: estimated setup time, target persona, template count
- Optional Featured status for SureStage-curated packs
Feature Flag
This feature requires the growth_demo_packs feature flag to be enabled.
Browsing Packs
- Click Demo Packs in the sidebar
- The page shows:
- Featured packs at the top with prominent cards
- All packs in a responsive grid below
- Use persona tabs to filter:
| Tab | Shows Packs For |
|---|---|
| All | Every available pack |
| Sales | Sales Engineers and AEs |
| Developer | Backend and frontend developers |
| Marketing | Marketing and demo teams |
| Support | Support and success teams |
Each card shows the pack name, description, template count, estimated setup time, and a Deploy Pack button.
Deploying a Pack
- Click Deploy Pack on any card
- The Deploy Dialog opens showing the template list:
- Required templates are pre-checked and locked
- Optional templates can be unchecked to skip
- The header shows the count: "3 of 4 selected"
- Click Deploy
Deployment Progress
The dialog transitions to a real-time progress screen:
| Status | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Pending | Waiting to be created |
| Creating | Simulation creation in progress |
| Done | Simulation created successfully |
| Failed | Creation failed (error details shown) |
Templates are created sequentially. A progress bar shows overall completion.
What Happens During Deployment
For each template in the pack:
- A new mock simulation is created in your account
- All routes from the blueprint template are imported
- Default responses are configured automatically
Success Screen
After completion, the success screen shows:
- Confirmation message with the pack name
- List of created simulation IDs
- View Simulations link to My Simulations
Viewing Past Deployments
Your deployment history is tracked with:
- Pack name and deployment date
- Status: completed, partial failure, or failed
- Template count deployed vs. total
Partial Failures
If some templates fail while others succeed:
- Status shows Partial Failure
- Successfully created simulations remain available
- Failed templates show error details
- You can retry by deploying the same pack again (creates new simulations)
Limitations
- Deploying a pack always creates new simulations — it does not reuse existing ones
- Simulation limits from your license tier apply
- Only active packs are visible in the listing
