How to handle hardcoded email IDs in scripts when dev and prod use different addresses?

[Vijay Kumar4]

I have created an inbound action with an email-based condition in the script. However, since I’m using a different email in production, I’m wondering—what’s the best practice here? Should I update the script with the production email after testing in dev, just before deployment?

@Vijay Kumar4 

store that in system property and then use gs.getProperty('property_name') to get the value and use in script

It's good for maintenance and no script change required, only property change and you are good

@Ankur Bawiskar So after deployment to production, do I need to manually update the system property value?

That's correct, you can add that as manual activity after deployment of update set.
