Server Environment
Once you have added an application, you can add additional environments. There is no limit on the number of environments you have, however, the application was designed with between 1 and 10 environments in mind. An application can have multiple environments and each environment is unique to that application. A Feature Toggle can have a different status in different environments.
To add a new environment, use the Tools menu to select "Add New Environment", this will display the following
Env Name: Enter the value for your environment, such as "Dev", "QA", "UAT", "PROD". You can use any value. This value will also be used in the Client Setup.
Default toggle value: (false) Select the default value you wish a new Feature Toggle to have in this environment. For example, you may want all new features on Dev to be true (developer is working on them), but in Production to be false (you want to control the release of the feature)
Require a reason when toggle state change to: You can setup a requirement for users to supply a change reason (text description) when a Feature Toggle is Enabled or Disabled or both. This can be useful when setting up a production environment, and you want to know why someone disabled a previously enabled Feature Toggle.
Once you have added the environment, it will prompt you for another until you close the modal.
Your screen will now look like this, with your Environments displayed across the top, between the columns "Feature Toggle Name" and "Notes"
If you wish to modify the name or delete the environment, then click the "pencil" icon next to the name. If you change the name, you MUST update any client configuration as well. Deleting the Environment will remove all Feature Toggle status values (and metadata) for that Environment. The Feature Toggles themselves will not be deleted.
If you wish to change the order that the environments are displayed in, then click the "pencil" icon next to the name of the environment you wish to move. Use the links for "Move Left" and "Move Right" to arrange your environments. Click the link once, then click "Save". Edit again and repeat to move multiple times.
