Hello there,

For changing the URL between environments, the *best practice* is to do it through Service Center. You can do it as seen on this document.

REST endpoint is composed by "two parts": the BaseURL (which you set on Service Center) and the URL Path which, ideally, shouldn't change between environments.

If you really want to have dynamic values on the URL Path, you can use variables, defined like this:

This way, your method will have an input parameter which is the environment - just like any other input parameter.


Let us know if this helps!


Happy (low)coding!
