This topic explains how to create new environments for Apigee hybrid. For an introduction, seeAbout environments and environment groups.

About environment creation

Environment creation is a two-step process:

• Create an environment in the management plane using either the UI or an Apigee API.
• Add configuration for that environment to your overrides file and apply it to the cluster.

The steps for adding an environment are described in adding and configuring an environment are explained inStep 5: Add an environment and Specify configuration overrides.

How to create an environment

1. Create one or more new environments in theApigee UI or with theCreate environments API. For the basic steps, seeStep 5: Add an environment.

2. Add a new environment definition to theenvs[] property in your overrides file. Note that the property is an array; therefore, you can add more than one environment definition to it. Give the new environment the same name as the one you created in the UI. For example, the following configuration defines two environments:test andprod:

   namespace:my-namespaceorg:my-organization...envs:-name:testserviceAccountPaths:synchronizer:"your_keypath/synchronizer-manager-service-account.json      udca: "your_keypath/analytic-agent-service-account.json-name:prodserviceAccountPaths:synchronizer:"your_keypath/synchronizer-manager-service-account.json      udca: "your_keypath/analytic-agent-service-account.json...

3. Apply any changes to the cluster:

   apigeectl apply -foverrides-file.yaml --all-envs
