Customize Environment Attributes
In this article, you’ll find detailed instructions on how to manage and customize your Environment Attributes. For detailed information about this concept, refer to the Environment Attributes section in our Glossary.
Requirements
To manage attributes, you need Manage Attributes global permission. For detailed information about permissions, refer to the Security & Permissions article.
Accessing the Environment Attributes Page
To access the Environment Attributes page, follow these steps:
Click the gear icon located on the upper right corner of Golive pages.
Click Golive Settings.
In the Environments section, select Attributes.
By following these steps, you'll open a page dedicated to managing Environment Attributes, where you can adjust settings and configurations as needed.
Set Default Environment Attributes
Standardize the structure of your Environments by defining a set of default attributes that will be automatically added to newly created Environments:
Access the Environment Attributes page.
Click the Default Attributes field.
From the drop-down menu, select the Environment Attributes to be set as default. These attributes will be automatically added to newly created Environments.
Info
Default Environment Attributes will be displayed in the More section from the Single Environment tab, in the Create Environment section.
Tip
You can define the attributes to set when creating environments from the Multiple Environments tab, in the Create Environment section.
Create a New Environment Attribute
You can create a new Environment Attribute in two ways:
From the Environment Attributes page
From an Environment Details page
Option 1: From the Environment Attributes Page
Access the Environment Attributes page.
Click the Add Attribute button.
Provide a Name for your new attribute.
Choose the Attribute Type:
Markdown: Allows multiline editing and supports markdown syntax.
Secured: Limits the visibility of the attribute. Only users with the View Secured Attributes permission will be able to read it (refer to Security & Permissions).
Single Select: Allows you to pre-define options that users can choose from.
Click Create.
Create as many attributes as needed to document your Environment configurations. Consider what information is relevant for your Jira users. If you have numerous attributes, use the Filter Displayed Attributes search box to locate them quickly.
Option 2: From an Environment Details Page
Go to the Details page of the desired Environment.
In the Attributes section on the right, click Add Attribute.
Tip
If the option isn’t visible, click Show all attributes.
At the bottom of the drop-down, click + Create.
Enter a Name for your new attribute.
Choose the Attribute Type:
Markdown: Allows multiline editing and supports markdown syntax.
Secured: Limits the visibility of the attribute. Only users with the View Secured Attributes permission will be able to read it (refer to Security & Permissions).
Single Select: Allows you to pre-define options that users can choose from.
Click Create.
The attribute is automatically added to the Environment you're viewing.
