Environments

Environment files use dotenv format and live in the .environments/ subdirectory of your collection.

File Format

my-collection/.environments/production.env

API_URL=https://api.example.com
API_KEY=sk-prod-abc123
USER_EMAIL=admin@example.com

my-collection/.environments/staging.env

API_URL=https://staging-api.example.com
API_KEY=sk-staging-xyz789

Variable Interpolation

Reference environment variables in your requests with {{var}} syntax:

url: "{{API_URL}}/users"
headers:
  - key: Authorization
    value: "Bearer {{API_KEY}}"
    enabled: true

Disabling Variables

Prefix a line with # to disable a variable:

# API_KEY=sk-old-key

Disabled variables are not available for substitution.
