cannot add a 3048 character long environment variable #7901

Is that key provided by google or a manually generated one? |
google provide a json file, I used the following script to change it into a string :
Looking at my code I assume that you would prefer me to use I'm using the same key in travisCI and there were no problem so is there any technical reason why you don't handle it ? |
@12rambau I'd recommend to not store the full file in an env var, but encrypt the json file in the repo and store the key in an env var, then you can decrypt it in the script you have. Not sure about increasing the size of the env vars would help to completely support this case, the size could increase over time, and we would need to increase the size again. |
Your solution seems totaly legit.
My point is the following : even though my strategy wasn't the most efficient, wouldn't it be normal to align the RDT requirements for environment variable with the other comonly used services ? |
What's the max length of each of the other services? I'm fine to have a similar value here. |
No idea I just know that mine was entering. I've asked on SO let's see if someone knows |
It seems TravisCI is not a concern anymore and my SO question was long deleted. nonetheless, I found the information I was looking for in the Github Documentation: https://docs.github.com/en/actions/learn-github-actions/variables#limits-for-configuration-variables max size = 64 Kb Do you think it would be doable to set the same limitation to your service ? |
This looks like a pretty edge case to me. However, I'm not opposed to use 64Kb as max size if it that's what other services are doing. |
I faced it again in 5 different documentations. In fact anything that should rely on a Google API token. Any news from your side ? |
Hi @12rambau. No news here. Unfortunately, we weren't able to prioritize this work yet. |

In my repository one of the dependancy is Google Earthe Engine API. this API require a manual authentification or a private key. In order to use the private key I've been to my admin panel and added it to environment variable (EE_PRIVATE_KEY).
The build unfortunately failed.
Looking closely at my env variable, I realize that the final character is not the appropriate one.
the Value field of the website can only handle 2048 characters and my key is 3044 character long. is there a way to change that ?
