First, navigate to the Settings menu (gear icon) on the left sidebar.
In the Project settings section, select Environments. This will bring you to the Environment management page, where you can create and manage different environments, such as staging, testing, or production.
On the Environments page, click on + New environment. This opens the environment setup popup, where you can configure the details for your new environment.
In the Edit environment popup, fill in the following fields:
Icon & Color: Choose an icon and color to visually distinguish this environment.
Name: Enter a descriptive name, such as "Staging," "Production," or "QA."
Description: Optionally, add a description for this environment to clarify its purpose or content.
Tips on Domain Entry:
Single Domain Example: foo.com
Multiple Domains: foo.com bar.com
Regex Matching: \.bar.com$
Once your environment is created, it will be displayed on the Environments dashboard with the chosen icon, name, and associated domains. To view details or make changes, click on the environment tile, and select the three-dot menu to either Edit or Delete the environment.
After creating environments, they are available within the Target and Publish settings of any experience. When you hit Publish, the Env selection dropdown (defaulted to "All domains") will automatically appear, allowing you to choose the specific environment(s) where the experience will be published. This ensures that your experience is live only on the domains associated with the selected environment(s).
Example: If you have "Staging" and "Production" environments set up, you can choose to publish an experience to either or both environments directly from this dropdown.
If you need to adjust the environment settings for an experience after it’s been published, you can do so from the experience details page.
Open any experience in the dashboard to access its details (A) and use the Env dropdown in the top-right corner to quickly change the environment(s) on which the experience is active without needing to republish.
Example: If you initially published an experience on "Staging" and now want to move it to "Production," simply select "Production" from this dropdown.
When using the Where settings for specific URL filtering, note that these settings act as additional filters on top of the environment selection. If you apply a domain in the Where filter that is not included in the selected environment(s), the experience will not display on that domain. Environments and Where filters need to be configured to work in harmony to ensure accurate targeting.
Example: If you target a specific URL under the "Where" filter but select an environment that does not include that URL’s domain, the experience will not be shown.
Domains: Add one or multiple domains associated with this environment. Separate domains by spaces, or press Enter after each domain. Domain rules here follow the same logic as the “” in the Where field of Target and Publish settings. You can also use regular expressions (e.g., \.*bar.com$ to match all subdomains ending with bar.com).
