Set deployment variables from environment variable

Maxim Shmalovsky_wn15gb

It is possible to define at etch deployment same variable with different values that defined at environment variable

For example:

environment variables:

USER_DEV- dev

USER_PROD - prod

deployment

Dev
- USER = USER_DEV
Prod
- USER = USER_PROD

So the pipeline echo will prints for deployment

Dev $USER is dev
PROD $USER is prod

Hi Maxim,

I assume that USER_DEV and USER_PROD are either workspace or repository variables?

I'm afraid that it is not possible to use the value of workspace or repository variables when you define deployment variables.

You can do so during the build if you include a command in the yml file, but it is not possible to reference another variable when you define them in the Repository settings > Deployments.

May I ask why that would be useful, instead of specifying the actual value in the deployment variables? I believe we have a feature request for this which was closed due to inactivity, but I can reopen and add an explanation on why this would be a useful feature.

Kind regards,
Theodora

if i define them as workspace variables then other users of bitbucket can use them as variables and their combination.
then when user ID or HOST changed i can update only at workspace and not at every repository pipeline.

Year late, but this is also something we'd like. We use common variables across our multiple repos, but they're only common within the environment. Being able to set Access Keys/Secrets in the Workspace, and then call them in the deployment means we only would need to update a password or key in the Workspace and have it automatically flow down.

Thanks,
