Set these values to adapt to the environment in which the program runs.

Docker

Environment variables can be set in the shell where the flows node is started, such as the docker-compose.yml file or a separate file referenced from docker-compose.yml. For example, edgenode.env.

Windows

In Windows, set the environment variables using Windows PowerShell, before starting the Flows flow runtime service:

$env:some_variable = some_value
