Environments

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.

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.

After creating a new Environment, you can select that environment as below.

Environment combobox will appear after Visual Designer page is selected.

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.
