Environment variables for npm scripts

[Nick Collins]

I'm trying to pass a variable into my npm script so I can run some pre-deployment methods. Unfortunately the below doesn't work and just throws an error, like the variable doesn't exist (however, it does):

- step:
    name: Run Pre-deploy scripts
    script:
        - MONGODB_URI=$MONGODB_URI npm run preDeploy

 Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hi Nick,

Have you defined MONGODB_URI as a repo or a workspace Pipelines variable?

Could you please copy-paste here the full output of this command from the Pipelines log? Please sanitize private/sensitive info in the output, if any.

Kind regards,
Theodora
