Environment variables¶
Some parameters, especially connection parameters will not be provided in the configuration files but rather will be passed on to the framework via environment variables.
These variables can be set on the local system, in a pipeline or can also be provided via a .env -file that is passed to the framework as additional command line parameter when executing the tool.
