Skill instructions
Environment Variables on Render Render exposes configuration to services as environment variables. Values are always strings at the platform layer—applications must parse numbers, booleans, and structured data explicitly. There are three primary ways to set variables: 1. Render Dashboard — per-service UI, bulk import from .env, save/redeploy options 2. Blueprint — envVars (and related keys) in render.yaml 3. MCP / API — e.g. updateenvironmentvariables on a service Deep wiring patterns, full platform variable tables, and language-specific notes live under references/. When to Use This Skill Use this skill when users want to: - Add, change, or remove environment variables or secrets - Understand Dashboard vs Blueprint vs API/MCP flows - Use environment groups for shared configuration - Wire fromDatabase, fromService, fromGroup, sync: false, or generateValue in Blueprints - Debug missing vars, secret files, precedence, or platform-injected names For full Blueprint authoring, pair with ren
