OTA Connect User Guide

Create an environment

Upon registration, you become the owner of one environment. You may also need to create additional environments for pre-production and production. Instead of creating multiple accounts for each environment, you can now create up to 10 additional environments using only one account. It is recommended to create new environments for collaboration, rather than use your home environment because owners cannot leave or be removed from their home environments.

The limit of 10 additional environments applies even if you leave the environments that you have created. There is currently no way to delete environments.

To create an environment:

  1. Go to the Environments tab.

  2. Click Create environment.

  4. Click Create.

    The created environment appears in the Environments list.

To find more details about the new environment, click it. The page with environment details opens. In the Members list, next to your email, you can find the Creator label. As an environment creator, you can leave or be removed from the additional environments that you created after registration. However, you cannot leave or be removed from your home environment that you got upon registration because you are its owner. To learn more about different types of environments, see What is an environment.

You can now add your colleagues to the environment.
