Unable to get environment variables in build script for Bitbucket pipelines

Question

I have set a few environment variables for Bitbucket pipelines

I am trying to pass them to my ANT build script through the bitbucket-pipelines.yml

ant -buildfile Repository/build/build.xml deployEmptyCheckOnly -Dsf.username=$SB_USERNAME -Dsf.password=$SB_PASSWORD -Dsf.serverUrl=$SF_SERVERURL

But when I try to echo the same in my build script file it prints

$SB_USERNAME rather than the value it has been set.

When you run this locally do you see similar errors?

If not, can you share the relevant parts of your build.xml here?
