Importing Environments

When you import an environment, you can create a new environment or upgrade an existing one.

To import an environment:

  1. Display the Import Environment dialog Management > Environments > Import Environment [button].
  2. Enter the path to the JSON file containing the environment definition or use the Browse button to select one.
  3. If you want to upgrade an existing environment, select the Upgrade Environment check box. To create a new environment, leave the box unchecked.

    If the environment's name in the JSON file (not the name of the file itself) matches an existing environment, the environment's properties are updated with the new values, and new items, such as resources, are added. If the name of the environment is not found, the command has no effect.

    Note: The environment's name is the first parameter in the JSON file; for example,

    "name": "UAT".

  4. Click Submit.
