The production environment is the live operational setting for your app after it’s launched.
Overview
RC provides two environments for each app: development and production. These environments are data-isolated to prevent conflicts between test and live data. Each environment has a unique App Key (icon 3). When you create an app in the RC backend (icon 1), it defaults to the development environment.
Key points
-
Each app has one set of development environment App Key / Secret and one set for production. Make sure the App Key and Secret match—don’t mix them across environments.
-
Before launching your app, switch from the development environment to production. For details, see RC app launch process and considerations.
Service activation is tied to the App Key. After launch, you can access and configure the production environment. When you first activate the production environment, the service toggles for the corresponding App Key are in their default state. You may need to note the services already activated in the development environment and activate them for the production App Key. Service activation, deactivation, and other settings may take up to 30 minutes to take effect.
