Dear all

I want to create an action on a page that should only be visible or enabled when the environment is Production, and hidden/disabled in Sandbox or Development. What is the recommended approach in AL to conditionally control actions based on the current environment?

thank you

hi

you can use the Environment Information page provides key details about the current tenant and environment. It shows whether you are working in Production or Sandbox, the environment name, region, and version details. This information is useful for administrators and developers to quickly verify where they are working, especially when multiple environments exist, and helps ensure that changes or tests are performed in the correct place

Hi,

Use Session.CurrentEnvironment() in AL.

Example:

actions
{
addlast(processing)
{
action(MyProdOnlyAction)
{
ApplicationArea = All;
Caption = 'Prod Action';
Visible = Session.CurrentEnvironment() = 'Production';
}
}
}

This ensures the action is only visible when the environment is Production.

Thanks
