Update Remote Config Environment Names

Hi,

Our setup is built on the assumption that the default environment is *not* production. This is specifically to avoid mistakes during development affecting our production environment. If I understand this right, the ability to default to a non-production environment is going away completely.
While I understand there must be a good reason for this internally, from the outside perspective this just seems like features (that we relied on) being cut, causing breaking changes, with one week's notice during the summer vacation season no less.

I hope there was a very good reason for the rushed schedule on this.

 

We also want to continue with our default environment *not* being production to avoid issues in development and staging from affecting live production.
Our environments used to be setup like:

• dev (default)
• staging
• prod

Ahead of this change our workaround is to now have a *true* production environment called "prod" and avoid using the "production" environment.

• production (default, don't use this)
• dev
• staging
• prod (this is real production)

Pretty confusing. Maybe "default" would be a better name for the default environment?

 

Hi again,

Thank you for the response, I see now that while the environments certainly get renamed in a potentially confusing manner, this shouldn't break anything. However, I'd like to ask a question about a different affected use case.

Previously, the EnvironmentID-less configuration fetch call directed you to the current default. This enabled changing the entire environment of the built and released application simply by moving the default environment tag to a different environment.

This no longer seems possible, so what is the suggested replacement workflow? My first idea was applying a rule that changes all of these parameters based on a condition, but that condition would have to be a remote config setting in itself and that doesn't seem to be possible. Is there an alternative workaround I've missed?

 

Hi,

@JeffDUnity3D, there's no code to refer to other than a basic FetchConfigs call without an environmentID set. The "condition" in the previous workflow would've been the default tag, switching which config the game fetches with no environmentID set.
I suppose it could be possible to fetch a new environmentID as a setting from the default config and then refetch with the new environmentID. This would certainly allow retargeting a published game to different environments in production.

As for @tagh's suggestion, If I understood this right, your idea would be to build tooling around the API to, rather than switch the environment the game points to, instead keep the environment static but replace all of its settings with the configs from other environments acting as templates.

This definitely sounds like it would work but does add management and tooling overhead compared to simply being able to point a live game at a different environment with a single click. It's comforting to hear that functionality to improve this process is on the roadmap.

I understand that this is probably not a common use case so thank you for your patience in discussing these concerns.

 

When can I create the environment? It is still unavailable.

 

Doesn't work in dashboard or editor

 

Still not Work

 

Currently, even our old configs seem to be down.

On Pull action within Unity Remote Config tab:

Failed to fetch remote configurations: HTTP/1.1 500 Internal Server Error

Remote Config Environments tab within Unity Dashboard is also down:
Error Loading Environments
Please try again

Update:
The servers seem to be back up again! Thanks

 

Hello All,

When API access is restored and the Remote Config package is updated?

 

When Remote Config package is updated and issue with
Failed to fetch remote config: HTTP/1.1 502 Bad Gateway
HTTP/1.1 502 Bad Gateway
wiil be solved?

 

I am using your package

"We are working to enable API access, and will be making updates to the Remote Config package"

It said that you will update the package, this package still not work(when i push, dashbord still clean) and not updated.

I want to know when the package will be updated.

 

1) Im open remote config window

2) Click to pull

3) Change environment, make some chages and click to push

4) Open Dashboard

5) And see that dashboard still clean (missing second environment and other settings)

 

Bad Gateway error was last week, there is no more this error.
I do not use Remote Config API, I use "standart" remo config and
and it doesn't update the data in the dashboard.

 

For tests i created a new clean project, everything works in it.
In my work project:
1) When i want to delete environment, i have error (TryDeleteEnvironment1.png, TryDeleteEnvironment2.png)
2) When i want to create environment, i have error (TryCreateEnvironment.png)
3) When i add the key in Dashboard, then Pull from Editor, Editor dont see new key. (No errors in cosole)
4) When i add the key in Editor and Push, Dashboard dont see new key. (No errors in cosole)

It seems that the project link in server is cached to the old dashboard on which default environment was not called "production" (Before the changes in the remote configs default environment name)

 

It's not a problem for us to have the production environment as default, but the problem is that the one that was automatically renamed to "production" was not the production one. I see that I can add and delete environments, but can I rename them? I'd like to keep the ids because we have live clients that reference them by ids

## Initialization

The Remote Config package depends on Unity's authentication and core services.

These dependencies require a small amount of user code for proper configuration.



```c#

using Unity.Services.Authentication;

using Unity.Services.Core;

using System.Threading.Tasks;



async Task InitializeRemoteConfigAsync()

{

        // initialize handlers for unity game services

        await UnityServices.InitializeAsync();



        // remote config requires authentication for managing environment information

        if (!AuthenticationService.Instance.IsSignedIn)

        {

            await AuthenticationService.Instance.SignInAnonymouslyAsync();

        }

}

```



or in Library\PackageCache\com.unity.remote-config@3.0.0-pre.4\Documentation~\CodeIntegration.md



and in Library\PackageCache\com.unity.services.core@1.1.0-pre.8\Documentation~\index.md



### Initialize game services

To initialize all game services at once you just have to call `UnityServices.InitializeAsync()`.

It returns a `Task` that enables you to monitor the initialization's progression.



#### Example

```cs

using System;

using Unity.Services.Core;

using Unity.Services.Core.Environments;

using UnityEngine;



public class InitializeUnityServices : MonoBehaviour

{

    public string environment = "production";



    async void Start()

    {

        try

        {

            var options = new InitializationOptions()

                .SetEnvironmentName(environment);



            await UnityServices.InitializeAsync(options);

        }

        catch (Exception exception)

        {

            // An error occured during services initialization.

        }

    }

}

```

Now there is no way to use remote settings on old android < 7.1?
Will the unity team provide a solution to the problem?
I have an idea for a solution - change this urls from package to self proxy host:

Code (CSharp):

1.  class AuthenticationPackageInitializer : IInitializablePackage
2.     {
3. #if AUTHENTICATION_TESTING_STAGING_UAS
4.         const string k_UasHost = "https://api.stg.identity.corp.unity3d.com";
5. #else
6.         const string k_UasHost = "https://api.prd.identity.corp.unity3d.com";
7. #endif
8.  

 

without auth package and 3.0+ remoute

Code (CSharp):

1.             // // initialize handlers for unity game services
2.             // await UnityServices.InitializeAsync();
3.             //
4.             // // remote config requires authentication for managing environment information
5.             // if (!AuthenticationService.Instance.IsSignedIn)
6.             // {
7.             //     Log("IsSignedIn");
8.             //     await AuthenticationService.Instance.SignInAnonymouslyAsync();
9.             // }
10.

@JeffDUnity3D Hi, how should I edit conditional values now? Conditions are now hidden in Unity editor window (this is... bad), and I also don't see new campaigns there. When I was trying to change values in my campaign using web-dashboard, they are shown empty after editing the campaign. I'm using conditions to provide platform-specific values to my users, and this seems to be ruined now. So, what are my further actions?

 

@JeffDUnity3D Hi! Unfortunately, I can't even sign-in now, nothing happens when I press "Sign in" or "Create account" (tried different browsers)
