1Password Environments should enable grouping environments by service
Hi,
The new .env management feature in 1Password is incredibly handy, and I can definitely see us adopting it for our backend services. It makes working with environment variables much more convenient.
That said, I’d like to share some concerns regarding scalability. We have several services, each with multiple environments such as development, staging, production, and feature-specific environments. In 1Password Environments, these all of these environments appear side by side in a single list, regardless of which service they belong to. This results in naming schemes like "[Service]: [Environment]". While workable, this approach becomes harder to manage as we scale across multiple services.
To illustrate, I’ve included a screenshot below showing what I anticipate the structure to look like in our setup. In this case, Service A and Service B have no relation to each other, yet their environments are intermingled. A way of grouping services would make this much clearer and easier to navigate.
Best regards,
Simon B. Støvring
