Create Your First Environment
In this article, you'll find a quick guide on how to create your first Environment in Golive.
Tip
If this is your first time accessing Golive, the Get Started wizard will guide you through the configuration process. One of the steps includes creating Environments. We strongly recommend completing all the steps to set up Golive.
Requirements
You must have installed Golive.
You must have the Create and Delete Environments permission included in an Environment Permission Scheme. For detailed information on the Permissions Scheme, refer to the Security & Permissionsdocumentation.
Create Your First Environment
To create your first Environment, follow these steps:
Step 1: Access Golive Global Page
Select Apps in Jira menu.
From the drop-down menu, select Golive to access the Golive Global Page.
Step 2: Create an Environment
Click the + Environment button located at the top-right corner of the screen.
Select the Single Environment tab.
Choose an existing Category or create a new one to classify your environment.
Select or create an Application.
Info
Each environment is linked to a single Application, providing granularity for tracking deployed versions, and you can safely create one Golive Environment per Application. For more information, refer to the Organizing your Environments & Applications documentation.
If you are creating a new Application, set Get application versions from by choosing:
An existing Jira Project: Choose this option if you store your Application versions in a Jira Project.
None: Choose this option if you aren’t using Jira Versions for this Application.
Set the Deployed Version by choosing:
An existing Jira Version: Choose this option to select an already existing Jira version deployed on your Environment.
Create new version: Choose this option to create a new version. If you have selected a Jira Project in the previous step, this new version will be created in your Jira Project.
None: Choose this option if there is no version currently deployed on your Environment.
Click Create.
Step 3: Review and Update the Environment
After creation, review and update the following additional information:
Status
URL
Attributes
Environment name
The newly created Environment will be visible in both the Environment Matrix and Environment List, showcasing its details within the Jira Project.
Step 4: Add other Applications and Environments
To expand your Jira Project's coverage, go to the Project Settings page. Map additional Applications to your project, and all associated Environments will be integrated. For detailed instructions on how to set up your Jira Projects, refer to the Jira Project Settings documentation.
