I have my environmental variables set to be available at Build and runtime, but when I log them during build, they are not set. They are only set at runtime. ---

My app is deployed as a docker container. Is there something I need to do to pass the vars to the container? ---

Hi @gofreddo ! 👋 Welcome to the Kinsta Community. Environment variables that are marked to be available at build should indeed be available at build. I was able to run an app with environment vars available at build on my end. Are you running into a specific error when deploying your application? If you contact our team through our chat support as well, we can discuss app details and provide more direct support as well.
