Profiles in Superblocks make it easy to switch between different development environments, like Production, Staging, or Development, as well as different regions within those environments, like us-east vs us-west.
- Use Development configurations in Superblocks Edit modes, Staging data sources to review and test changes, and Production once Applications, Workflows, and Scheduled Jobs are deployed.
- Add multiple Production Instances (ex:
us-east,us-west,eu-west, etc) to your Application’s deployed mode. Let users switch between Profiles to fetch region specific data.
To create new profiles or configure integration credentials per profile, see the Manage environment profiles admin guide.
Add profiles to Edit, Preview, or Deployed modes
Profiles can be added or removed from the Edit, Preview, or Deployed mode of your Apps, Workflows, and Scheduled Jobs from the Profile Settings menu. Access the menu from the Settings icon on the lower left corner of any App, Workflow, or Scheduled Job then click Profiles. To make additional profiles available in each mode:- Click the ➕ icon next to the profiles for the desired mode
- Choose the profile to add to the mode
Since Scheduled Jobs cannot be invoked by end-users, you only need to choose which profile to use in Edit and Deployed modes. The Edit mode Profile will be used when running the job interactively while the Deployed mode Profile will be used when the job runs on its schedule.
Change the default profile
When multiple profiles are available in Edit, Preview, or Deployed mode, you can set a default profile for the mode. This is the profile that will be used to execute APIs when the Application first loads, or when Workflows are called without a profile specified. To change the default profile, select the radio button next to the profile you want to use by default when APIs run:
