Environments

The Environment is a place in which to store connections for a project. Each project can have several Environments. The environment usually reflects the deployment stage and often takes names such as 'Development', 'UAT', 'Staging', and 'Production' - but they can be called anything you like. 

The list of Environments is shown on the Admin page for the project on the Environments tab. 

Create Environments 

New environments can be created with the  button. The list of existing environments is shown, and the current environment is shown with a tick next to its name and stated above the list of environments. 

Once you click on the button, a dialogue box will display where you can define the name of the environment, which engine group your environment will run in, and any tags you wish to add at this point. 

Change Environment 

To change the current environment, select an environment from the list and click on the tick the button on the right of the window. Changing the environment will change the default environment selection in the testing console to the new environment you’ve selected.

The Production radio button needs to be selected in your nominated production environment to populate journey discovery analytics. The Production Environment radio button ensures the separation of Xponent Profile data from all of the other non-production environments in your organization. 

Selecting the Production Environment radio button will trigger a confirmation dialogue box. 

Ensure that this is the right environment you want to designate as your production environment before proceeding. 

Delete Environments 

Environments can be deleted by clicking on the trash can icon. A confirmation dialogue will appear.
