Adobe Launch Environment - Create a Production Copy and Use it as DEV env

[#1]

Hello everyone,

I am migrating DTM to Launch and I would like to create a Production env copy and use it as DEV. Could you advise how to do it properly?

Thanks

You should not use the Production env copy for DEV. the production env copy is built to send track information to the production report suite.

If you want to test launch script on dev environment then you can get it by clicking on the install button of the development environment, and to get the script for other environments you need to follow the same steps.

In the Adobe analytics extensions, you will see options to configure report suites, for development configure only development related report suite, and for production configure prod related report suite.

Once, the configuration is completed, go to the "publishing flow" and create a library and add all changes, then build and publish.

For testing your library should be in the approved state, for the production it should be in the published state.

You can use different report suites for development and production, you can configure a development report suite for both dev and stage environments.

Currently we dont have three environments and instead of developing from scratch the DEV env, it may be a starting point.

It varies on project to project, some projects will have two, some project three environments, but you need to create a minimum two environment one for development and another for production. the development is used for testing your functionality in the lowe environments. for this, you need to configure the development report suite.

if the script URL ends with -development.js then it is dev script, if not it is production script.

You can create a new production environment by going to the environments section.
