Configures environment variables for Power Pages site settings to support ALM across environments. Creates environment variable definitions in Dataverse, guides the user through linking site settings to those variables via the Power Pages Management app, adds the variables to the solution, and generates a deployment-settings.json file with per-stage override values. Use when asked to: "configure environment variables", "add env vars", "set up deployment variables…
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

# configure-env-variables
Creates and links Dataverse environment variables to Power Pages site settings, enabling different configuration values per deployment environment (dev vs staging vs prod). Generates `deployment-settings.json` for use by `deploy-pipeline`.
## Background
Power Pages site settings can be backed by environment variables (GA March 2025, enhanced data model only). When linked:
- The site setting's `mspp_source` changes from `0` (static) to `1` (environment variable)
- The runtime reads the env var value for the current environment instead of the static `mspp_value`
- During pipeline deployment, target-environment values are injected via `deploymentsettingsjson`
**API note**: The site setting → env var link is set via a HAR-confirmed OData PATCH pattern (v9.0, `EnvironmentValue` nav property, `if-match: *` and `clienthost: Browser` headers required). This is handled by `scripts/lib/link-site-setting-to-env-var.js`. All steps are fully automated.
## Prerequisites
- PAC CLI authenticated: `pac auth who`

How to install
mdr add microsoft/power-platform-skills/configure-env-variables@sha256:fb4d8abf77df93d3The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261026.ea1e2e7, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
