Datasource Environments |
This page explains multiple datasource environments, which allows developers to isolate their testing and production datasources.
Overview
Multiple environments allow you to display and test against nonsensitive (non-production) data. You can set up connections to your data sources (e.g., database or API) and add environment-specific credentials within the same data sources.
This allows you to create queries and switch between environments, with the queries automatically using the selected environment.
1. Accessing the Environments Page:
- Log in to your account and navigate to the main dashboard.
- Locate and click on the "Environments" section to access the list of existing environments.
List the Environments
2. Adding a New Environment:
- On the "Environments" page, look for an option to "Add New" or a similar label.
- Click on this option to open a form where you can input details for the new environment.
- Fill in the required information, such as environment name, description, and any other relevant details.
- Once complete, save the new environment.
Create a new Environment
After creating a new Environment, you can select that environment as below.
{% hint style="info" %} Environment combobox will appear after Visual Designer page is selected. {% endhint %}
Select your environment
3. Deleting an Existing Environment:
- In the "Environments" list, identify the environment you want to delete.
- Next to the environment entry, look for a "Delete" or "Remove" option.
- Confirm the deletion when prompted. Be cautious, as this action is irreversible.
4. Updating an Existing Environment:
- Locate the environment you wish to update in the "Environments" list.
- Click on the environment entry to open its detailed view or edit form.
- Modify the necessary details, such as environment name or description.
- Save the changes to update the existing environment.
