    Hi nmrao ,

     

    thanks for your reaction.

    That's nice then to find a way and get working.

    Mostly that(environments) is for SOAP / REST / JDBC request steps, IMO.

    In that case, you don't even have to bother about any name. Just use the actual ip / server to which requests should be hitting.
