Environments

In the Environment tab, you can manage all aspects related to your system environment.

Once a new environment is created, you will be prompted to copy the corresponding snippet for the system.

If the deployment method is using an extension, relevant URLs for the environment can be configured in the Extension tab.

For detailed requirements, refer to the "Extension" section.

Renaming and deleting environments

“Production” and “Text” environments cannot be altered, but you can rename and delete custom environments.

Hover over the custom environment
Click on the 3-dot options menu
Click Rename or Delete

Restoring deleted environments

Any custom environments that have been deleted will be moved to the Deleted Environments tab and can be restored at any time.

Hover over the custom environment
Click the Restore button

Extension

An extension is automatically created for each account, and any new system created is added to the extension but not activated by default.

Extension settings are configured on a per-environment basis.

System Users

The Systems Users tab displays a list of all users assigned to work on the system.

Data Collection Level

Select the level of data collection for the system.

You can use the Accessibility tab to enable accessibility on the system or account level. Enabling it on the account level means that any new system created will have accessibility settings turned on by default, but won't affect any existing systems.

To enable accessibility for the system, turn on the Enable accessibility toggle
To enable accessibility for the entire account, select the Automatically enable checkbox

If accessibility was already enabled at the account level, the toggle will be turned on by default with no option to turn it off. You must contact support to have it disabled.

Technical Notes

"Production" and "Test" environments are automatically generated during system creation
- These two environments are immutable, meaning they cannot be altered (renamed or deleted)
The name assigned to the environment must be a single word with a maximum length of 100 characters, without spaces or special characters, and cannot be "Preview"
