Latest Version

I could reproduce the problem in the latest build

What happened?

When configuring a required prompted variable with multiple values in a Variable Set(or project variables) with both an unscoped value and a value scoped to a specific environment, Octopus prompts for the variable twice during deployment to that environment.

Reproduction

Create 1 Variable and select the “Prompt for value” option

Set the “Control Type’ value of “Drop Down”

```
Configure your Drop Down values
```

Select the “Required” option at the bottom

Select “Done” to create the new variable

In this new Variable, select the option to Duplicate Value

Edit the new Value to have different Drop Down Options

```
Save the new Variable Value
```

Scope this new Variable value only to Environment “A”

Create Release and Deploy to Environment "A"

Workaround

Having scoping for each prompted value. Or set a default value for the unscoped prompted variable value instead of using an unscoped value
