Creating an Environment

Quick guidde​

Environment Management enables administrators to configure and maintain the environments (such as Development, UAT, and Production) that the What-If platform connects to. Environments are managed centrally, with support for API endpoint configuration, status monitoring, and lifecycle actions including add, edit, refresh, and delete.

Administrators can:

  • Create new environments
  • Set environment names, types (Design or Deploy), and host addresses
  • Associate products and deploy environment names
  • Configure default environment and basic authentication settings
  • Activate or deactivate environments
