Overview

Environment variables let you pass sensitive information—API keys, passwords, authentication tokens—to your Projects without exposing them in your code. Use them to authenticate with external services, configure different settings for development versus production, or share configuration across multiple Projects.

​
How it works

Environment variables are defined at either the Project level or workspace level. Variable hierarchy: Project-level variables take precedence over workspace-level variables. If you define the same key at both levels, the Project-level value is used. This lets you set workspace-wide defaults while allowing individual Projects to override specific values. Environment targeting: Each variable can target three contexts: Online IDE (development), deployed Projects (production), or both. Use different API keys or configuration for development versus production.

​
Usage

​
Project-level environment variables

Go to the Environment Variables tab in your Project to create, edit, or delete variables: https://app.intuned.io/projects/{project-id}/env-vars

​
Create an environment variable

Select New and provide a key, value, and optional description. Choose where to expose it: Online IDE, deployed Projects, or both.
Deployed environment variables require redeployment to take effect. When developing locally via CLI, see Local development.
Create Environment Variable To use different values per environment, create two variables with the same key and select the appropriate environment for each. Create Environment Variable Different Values

​
Edit an environment variable

Select … > Edit next to a variable to update its key, value, or environments. Edit Environment Variable

​
Delete an environment variable

Select … next to the variable you want to delete, then select Delete. Confirm when prompted. Delete Environment Variable

​
Workspace-level environment variables

Workspace environment variables are defined at the workspace level and exposed to all Projects in that workspace: https://app.intuned.io/settings/env-vars Access workspace-level variables by selecting Shared variables in the Environment Variables tab of your Project. Workspace Level Environment Variables Alternatively, go to side panel > Workspace Settings > Environment Variables to select workspace-level variables for your Project. Workspace Level Environment Variables Side Panel

​
Local development

When developing locally via CLI, the CLI reads .env files and system environment variables.
.env
TEST_VAR=local_value
.env files are for local development only and aren’t deployed. Before deploying, configure your environment variables in the UI using the steps above.
