Support Team-linked environment variables

Description -

 

Our Adobe PS team indicated that a best practice is to create two different teams -- Production and Development -- and copy scenarios between the two teams.  Each time we do such a copy, however, we end up needing to update a variety of items, including constants.  These constants CAN be stored in variables in the scenario itself, but it forces us to constantly update the scenario for these minor value differences between the two teams.

 

What is requested is to have a list of "global variables" (think Team-linked environment variables) that can be references using a constant reference, independent of the scenario.  The idea would be something like this:

 

Production Environment Variable: Standard Template ID = 1234567890

Development Environment Variable: Standard Template ID = 0987654321

 

In the Scenario:

{{TeamEnvironment.`Standard Template ID`}

 

Why is this feature important to you -

 

We've had a number of copy-related quality issues pop up as we've been migrating scenarios from Dev to Prod but humans forget to update these values appropriately.

 

How would you like the feature to work -
