        From the picture you posted i can see that you are creating the dialog yourself from a Groovy script to toggle environments yourself, which is fine. What i would do if i wanted to run the script in a headless environment is to first wrap the

         

        UISupport.showPopup(...)

        With a isHeadless() test. 

         

         

        def environment = '';
        if(UISupport.isHeadless()){
            def environment = project.getPropertyValue("my.environment.prop") ?: "defaultEnvironment" 
}else{
    UISupport.showPopup(...) //select environment in gui
}

        And specify the environment right at the commandline using -Pmy.environment.prop=devLocal

         

        Does that help?

    Also you should save the result of the prompt in the environment variable.
