Read environment variable from UIKIT

Forge Forge UI Kit and Custom UI
1

Hello,

We’re attempting to read environment variables from our React UIKIT application but when doing console.log(process.env.MY_KEY) always end up with a process is not defined.

Is there any way to read these from UIKIT Frontend ? On the backend it works fine.

Hey @GuillaumeBero,

Apologies, the documentation isn’t clear on this however the environment variables aren’t accessible from the frontend of your app which is running in the browser.

You will need to build a resolver function and call it from the apps frontend to access the variable.

I hope this clarifies! let me know if you have any questions about how to do this.

If this has answered your question, please mark as Solved.

Thanks!
Mel
