Creating a new environment (staging/development) within a site

If you already have an environment added to a site, you can add additional environments using these steps.

  1. Log in to the User Portal
  2. Click the site name listed on the Sites page
  3. Locate the dropdown containing the environment name at the top
  4. Click Add production environment, Add staging environment or Add development environment from the menu

Next you’ll be prompted to fill in a name, environment type, and other setup options.

You will receive an email once the environment has completed the setup process. If you are copying from an existing environment, this process can take some time to complete.
