Exercise - Apply to environment

Last modified by Erik Bakker on 2023/08/04 13:41

With this exercise, we learn how to use the "apply to environment" functionality in Deploy -> Architecture. This functionality is a key component in sending changes to our eMagiz cloud to actualize these changes. Most notably among these changes are the configuration of routes and certificates.

Should you have any questions, please contact academy@emagiz.com.

1. Prerequisites

  • Completed all previous microlearnings on the subject.
  • Access to my.emagiz.com with your own account and MFA configured.
  • A model in which you can create this exercise.

2. Exercise

In this exercise we will add a certificate and a route. Once done we press the "Apply to environment" functionality to understand that those kinds of changes are only applied once you press this button.

To complete this exercise you need to execute the following steps:

  • Navigate to Deploy -> Architecture
  • Enter "Start Editing" mode and open the context menu (by clicking on the white area of the canvas)
  • Select the certificate option and fill in the following things:
    • CN Name
    • Client Name
  • Save your changes on certificate level
  • Open the context menu again and select the route option.
  • Fill in the following things:
    • DNS Left most label
    • Port
    • Runtime(s)
    • Certificate to use
  • Save your changes

3. Solution

  • Understand that indirect changes will only be applied to your cloud once you press "Apply to environment" and confirm "Apply changes".

In this short movie, you will find the workout of this exercise. Take a moment to review this one and compare it to your solution.
