Creating Environments

You can create environments or import existing ones. See Importing/Exporting Environments for information about importing environments.

To create an environment:

  1. Navigate to Management > Environments > Create Environment [button].
  2. Enter the environment information in the fields provided:
    Field Description
    Name Name is used as part of the deployment process, and typically corresponds to the target environment. For example, if you are deploying to a system integration testing environment, you could use the name SIT.
    Description Description is optional text.
    Color Select a color to visually identify the environment in the user interface.
  3. Click Save.

After you create environments, you associate them with agents or agent resources and map the environments to applications. You can also make them part of a pipeline.

Some configuration of environments is application-specific, and therefore is done as part of the application configuration. This includes overrides to security. For more information, see Adding Environments to Applications.

The following topics describe the environment options.
