## Overview
-Shared environment variables allow you to:
-- Define values once and use them across multiple services
-- Maintain configuration consistency between services
+Environment variables in Dokploy allow you to:
+- Define configuration once and reuse it
+- Share values across multiple services
+- Reference values from within the same service
- Centrally manage sensitive information
-
+
-## Practical Example
+## Defining Variables
+
+You can declare environment variables either:
+- **Project-level (shared)** — available across all services in the project
+- **Service-level** — specific to a single service
+
+## Project-Level Variables
+
+### Practical Example
Let's consider a common scenario where you have:
- A PostgreSQL database
@@ -41,11 +49,28 @@ DATABASE_URL=${{project.DATABASE_URL}}
Dokploy will automatically replace `${{project.DATABASE_URL}}` with the value defined in the project's shared variables.
-## Best Practices
+You can use shared environment variables in all the services available in dokploy.
+
+## Service-Level Variables
+
+Service-level variables are specific to a single service and can be used to override shared variables or define service-specific configurations.
+
+### Practical Example
+
+Let's say you have a service that requires a different database user. You can define a service-level variable:
+
+```bash
+DATABASE_USER=service_user
+DATABASE_URL=postgresql://${{DATABASE_USER}}:${{project.DATABASE_PASSWORD}}@service-database:5432/postgres
+```
+
+
+ Preview Deployments environments also include a service-level variable called `DOKPLOY_DEPLOY_URL`, which points to the deployment URL of the service.
+ It can be used as `${{DOKPLOY_DEPLOY_URL}}` for variables like `APP_URL=https://${{DOKPLOY_DEPLOY_URL}}`.
+
+
+### Best Practices
- Use shared variables for credentials and configurations that repeat across services
- Keep descriptive variable names
-- Document the purpose of each variable for easier maintenance
