Adding Application Environment Properties

Properties are parameters that can be preset and passed from step to step in processes.

You can define environment properties at the application environment level. The application environment properties are specific to the application's use of an environment. Environment properties added at this level appear under the application environment's Properties tab, and not under the environment's Properties tab, because they are set for this application only.

Environment property values for same-named properties are resolved at the most specific level. An environment property value set at the application level overrides one with the same name set directly on the environment property level. An environment property value set at the component level overrides any with the same name set directly on the environment property level or on the application environment level.

To create application environment properties:

  1. Navigate to Application > Environments > [>selected environment] > Properties.
  2. Click the Add Property button.
  3. Enter the property's name in the Name field.
  4. Enter a description of the property in the Description field.
  5. Specify whether the property is secure by using the Secure check box.

    Secure properties are stored encrypted and displayed obscured in the user interface.

  6. Enter a value for the property in the Value field.
  7. Click Save.
You can reference the property value in processes using ${p:environment/<property name>}.
