# Multi-Region and Cloning Environments

**[Svix Blog](https://daily.dev/sources/svix)** · 3 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Svix now supports creating environments in different geographical regions, letting users pick regions closer to them or within specific compliance zones like the EU for GDPR. The default environment region is EU when unset, so US region users need to set the correct serverUrl. Additionally, environment settings and event types can now be imported/exported as JSON, enabling environment cloning, staging/production syncing, and storing configuration in version control.

## Questions this post answers

### How do I clone a Svix environment configuration to another environment?

Export the environment settings and event types as JSON from the environment management page on the Svix dashboard, then import that JSON into the target environment. This workflow supports cloning environments, keeping staging and production in sync, and storing environment configuration in version control.

_Track platform changes like environment cloning workflows as you build out webhook infrastructure on daily.dev._

### What region does Svix use by default for a new environment and why does it matter?

Svix defaults new environments to the EU region when none is explicitly set, primarily to simplify GDPR compliance. Developers using US regions must explicitly configure the correct serverUrl in their libraries, since using the wrong URL or API key for the chosen environment's region will cause requests to fail.

_Developers configuring regional compliance settings can follow infrastructure updates like this on daily.dev._

### Can I change the region of an existing Svix environment after creation?

No, once an environment is created in a specific region its region cannot be changed afterward. To use a different region, a new environment must be created in that region; Svix allows creating as many environments as needed across multiple regions.

_Anyone planning multi-region infrastructure can keep tabs on provider constraints like this via daily.dev._
