What are environment tags?

Environment tags are a way of managing which version of the dashboard is being shown in your application. When you embed the dashboard, you can pass in an environment field which corresponds to an environment tag. The embedded component will then render the dashboard associated with the provided environment tag.

Creating new environment tags

By default, your account has a production and staging environment tag. You may create any number of tags to manage as many environments as you may have.

To create a new environment, click “Create New” and then configure the new tag.
