I cannot locate the envs variable documentation in the docs

Hi there, previously I can locate a documentation for all available env variables configuration for the Directus Docker Image deployment in this page: https://docs.directus.io/self-hosted/config-options

I am pretty sure there is more env that can be configured within the docker image, as you can see on this web archive for that page Configuration Options | Directus Docs

Are all of that information moved to other page? Is it currently being updated? Thank you

Apparently, the information regarding the env variable configuration is still in the repo here https://github.com/directus/directus/blob/main/docs/self-hosted/config-options.md, but the old link redirects the user immediately to https://directus.io/docs, thus making it unaccessible.

Yeah, unfortunately it seems like old docs now have been removed from Google index while new ones are still not really complete, or at least not meaningful structured for several themes.

I’ve wrote a topic about this a few days ago. Directus Docs troubles

Yes, very unfortunate, but we can still access the information through the repo luckily, you can see it here https://github.com/directus/directus/blob/main/docs/self-hosted/config-options.md

Nice find, definitely useful!

The env configuration variables are located here in the new docs:

NOTE: each group of variables are in their own pages accessed via the menu on the left side bar. e.g. https://directus.io/docs/configuration/security-limits

Hope this helps.

Thanks, tho even you pointed my nose right onto it, I had to search for it. :sweat_smile:

On mobile it’s even less obvious that those menu points are related to each other

Might be just me, but I could deal easier with the old nav structure.
