I have some business rules that need to identify which environment the BR is running in. This is because they does different things in each environment. In one BR i want the process to run in Prod but not QA or Dev, in another i want to copy extract files to an external shared folder which is different for each environment. I was thinking of using a dashboard parameter but if after a Prod to Dev/QA refresh i forget to change the value of the parameter, the BR will copy the files to the Prod external folder and i don't want that to happen. this is why i am trying to find a way to identify the environment without relying on the value in a parameter. Any thoughts?
Have a great day!

You could retrieve the connection URL using,
si.WebServerUrlUsedByClient
& differentiate the Environment by identifying specific keywords (Dev/Stage/Prod) in it.

Please see if the substitution variable |AppName| helps. This is a general substitution variable cand provides the application name. It can be used in Business rules.

Unfortunately we use the same application name for all our environments. We are currently On-Prem. When we refresh from Prod to Dev and QA we do not rename the Dev/QA applications. if we did, that would work great. Any other thoughts?
