Today the Amplify Console and Amplify CLI have launched 5 new features for improving how teams manage Amplify backend environments

The Amplify Console now offers visibility into backend environment resources created by the Amplify CLI, providing a central place for development teams to view and manage their backend environments. With this launch, the Amplify Console and CLI now work together — start a project in the CLI and visit the Console to view your backend environments; or deploy a fullstack sample in the Console and continue working on the project locally using the CLI. The Amplify CLI also released the amplify pull command to streamline team workflows for sharing backend environments across multiple frontends.



Feature 1: Entire team has visibility into backend environments created from the CLI in the Amplify Console

Running amplify init on a new project creates an Amplify app with a backend environment. An Amplify app now consists of frontend environments (Git branches or manual deploy environments) and backend environments.
