Environment Replication
You can easily replicate environments using the YAML Download feature in the environment selector.
An environment is a work unit that can be composed of one or multiple services. For more details about ale

Download YAML File
Click the
Environment selector
on the right to download a YAML file containing deployment configurations for all services in the environment you want to replicate.
The YAML file includes configuration values such as resources, environment variables, and secret names, but it does not include the secret values. If the services in the environment use stored secrets, see below to store secrets in the new environment.
Download Secrets
Navigate to the Secrets section in the Settings tab and click
Download as file
to export your stored secrets.
Save Secrets
Apply the downloaded file to the new environment using drag & drop, then save.
Apply YAML File
When you apply the YAML file to the new environment using drag & drop, all services will be created in a stopped state.
Click the icon to start each service individually, or click
Start All
from the Environment selector to launch all services at once.
For services requiring external connections, make sure to enable TCP external access.
