Group Creation

How to Create Environment Group

An environment group is created by defining a special tag that can be attached to selected environments. Groups help separate projects logically within the dashboard—for example, by development, testing, and production stages.
Flexible NamesUse letters, numbers, spaces, and special characters.
Nested StructureCreate a subgroup inside an existing parent group.
Optional AssignmentAdd environments immediately or create an empty group for later use.
