# Global Environment Variables
# Global Variables
Langflow 1.0 alpha includes the option to add **Global Environment Variables** for your application.
Global Variables are a useful feature of Langflow, allowing you to define reusable variables accessed from any Text field in your project.
## Add a global variable to a project
## TL;DR
In this example, you'll add the `openai_api_key` credential as a global environment variable to the **Basic Prompting** starter project.
- Global Variables are reusable variables accessible from any Text field in your project.
- To create one, click the 🌐 button in a Text field and then **+ Add New Variable**.
- Define the **Name**, **Type**, and **Value** of the variable.
- Click **Save Variable** to create it.
- All Credential Global Variables are encrypted and accessible only by you.
- Set _`LANGFLOW_STORE_ENVIRONMENT_VARIABLES`_ to _`true`_ in your `.env` file to add all variables in _`LANGFLOW_VARIABLES_TO_GET_FROM_ENVIRONMENT`_ to your user's Global Variables.
For more information on the starter flow, see [Basic prompting](../starter-projects/basic-prompting.mdx).
1. From the Langflow dashboard, click **New Project**.
2. Select **Basic Prompting**.
## Creating and Adding a Global Variable
The **Basic Prompting** flow is created.
To create and add a global variable, click the 🌐 button in a Text field, and then click **+ Add New Variable**.
3. To create an environment variable for the **OpenAI** component:
1. In the **OpenAI API Key** field, click the **Globe** button, and then click **Add New Variable**.
2. In the **Variable Name** field, enter `openai_api_key`.
3. In the **Value** field, paste your OpenAI API Key (`sk-...`).
4. For the variable **Type**, select **Credential**.
5. In the **Apply to Fields** field, select **OpenAI API Key** to apply this variable to all fields named **OpenAI API Key**.
Text fields are where you write text without opening a Text area, and are identified with the 🌐 icon.
For example, to create an environment variable for the **OpenAI** component:
1. In the **OpenAI API Key** text field, click the 🌐 button, then **Add New Variable**.
2. Enter `openai_api_key` in the **Variable Name** field.
3. Paste your OpenAI API Key (`sk-...`) in the **Value** field.
4. Select **Credential** for the **Type**.
5. Choose **OpenAI API Key** in the **Apply to Fields** field to apply this variable to all fields named **OpenAI API Key**.
6. Click **Save Variable**.
You now have a `openai_api_key` global environment variable for your Langflow project.
Subsequently, clicking the 🌐 button in a Text field will display the new variable in the dropdown.

## Configuring Environment Variables in your .env file
Setting `LANGFLOW_STORE_ENVIRONMENT_VARIABLES` to `true` in your `.env` file (default) adds all variables in `LANGFLOW_VARIABLES_TO_GET_FROM_ENVIRONMENT` to your user's Global Variables.
These variables are accessible like any other Global Variable.
<Admonition type="tip">
To prevent this behavior, set `LANGFLOW_STORE_ENVIRONMENT_VARIABLES` to `false` in your `.env` file.
</Admonition>
You can specify variables to get from the environment by listing them in `LANGFLOW_VARIABLES_TO_GET_FROM_ENVIRONMENT`.
Specify variables as a comma-separated list (e.g., _`"VARIABLE1, VARIABLE2"`_) or a JSON-encoded string (e.g., _`'["VARIABLE1", "VARIABLE2"]'`_).
The default list of variables includes:
- ANTHROPIC_API_KEY
- ASTRA_DB_API_ENDPOINT
- ASTRA_DB_APPLICATION_TOKEN
- AZURE_OPENAI_API_KEY
- AZURE_OPENAI_API_DEPLOYMENT_NAME
- AZURE_OPENAI_API_EMBEDDINGS_DEPLOYMENT_NAME
- AZURE_OPENAI_API_INSTANCE_NAME
- AZURE_OPENAI_API_VERSION
- COHERE_API_KEY
- GOOGLE_API_KEY
- GROQ_API_KEY
- HUGGINGFACEHUB_API_TOKEN
- OPENAI_API_KEY
- PINECONE_API_KEY
- SEARCHAPI_API_KEY
- SERPAPI_API_KEY
- UPSTASH_VECTOR_REST_URL
- UPSTASH_VECTOR_REST_TOKEN
- VECTARA_CUSTOMER_ID
- VECTARA_CORPUS_ID
- VECTARA_API_KEY

# Global Variables
## TLDR;
- Global Variables are reusable variables that can be accessed from any Text field in your project.
- To create a Global Variable, click on the 🌐 button in a Text field and then **+ Add New Variable**.
- Define the **Name**, **Type**, and **Value** of the variable.
- Click on **Save Variable** to create the variable.
- All Credential Global Variables are encrypted and cannot be accessed by anyone but you.
- Set _`LANGFLOW_STORE_ENVIRONMENT_VARIABLES`_ to _`true`_ in your `.env` file to add all variables in _`LANGFLOW_VARIABLES_TO_GET_FROM_ENVIRONMENT`_ to your user's Global Variables.
Global Variables are a really useful feature of Langflow.
They allow you to define reusable variables that can be accessed from any Text field in your project.
The first thing you need to do is find a **Text field** in a Component, so let's talk about what a Text field is.
## Text Fields
Text fields are the fields in a Component where you can write text but that does not allow you to open a Text Area.
The easiest way to find fields that are Text fields, though, is to look for fields that have a 🌐 button.

}}
style={{ width: "50%" }}

## Creating a Global Variable
To create a Global Variable, you need to click on the 🌐 button in a Text field and that will open a dropdown showing your currently available variables and at the end of it **+ Add New Variable**.
<ZoomableImage
alt="Docusaurus themed image"
sources={{
light: "img/add-new-variable.png",
dark: "img/add-new-variable.png",
}}
style={{ width: "60%" }}
/>
Click on **+ Add New Variable** and a window will open where you can define your new Global Variable.
In it, you can define the **Name** of the variable, the optional **Type** of the variable, and the **Value** of the variable.
The **Name** is the name that you will use to refer to the variable in your Text fields.
The **Type** is optional for now but will be used in the future to allow for more advanced features.
The **Value** is the value that the variable will have.

sources={{
light: "img/create-variable-window.png",
dark: "img/create-variable-window.png",
}}
style={{ width: "60%" }}
/>
After you have defined your variable, click on **Save Variable** and your variable will be created.
After that, once you click on the 🌐 button in a Text field, you will see your new variable in the dropdown.
## Environment Variables
If you set _`LANGFLOW_STORE_ENVIRONMENT_VARIABLES`_ to _`true`_ (which is the default value) in your `.env` file, all variables in _`LANGFLOW_VARIABLES_TO_GET_FROM_ENVIRONMENT`_ will be added to your user's Global Variables.
All of these variables can be used in your project as any other Global Variable.
<Admonition type="tip">
You can set _`LANGFLOW_STORE_ENVIRONMENT_VARIABLES`_ to _`false`_ in your
`.env` file to prevent this behavior.
</Admonition>
You can also set _`LANGFLOW_VARIABLES_TO_GET_FROM_ENVIRONMENT`_ to a list of variables that you want to get from the environment.
The default list at the moment is:
- ANTHROPIC_API_KEY
- ASTRA_DB_API_ENDPOINT
- ASTRA_DB_APPLICATION_TOKEN
- AZURE_OPENAI_API_KEY
- AZURE_OPENAI_API_DEPLOYMENT_NAME
- AZURE_OPENAI_API_EMBEDDINGS_DEPLOYMENT_NAME
- AZURE_OPENAI_API_INSTANCE_NAME
- AZURE_OPENAI_API_VERSION
- COHERE_API_KEY
- GOOGLE_API_KEY
- GROQ_API_KEY
- HUGGINGFACEHUB_API_TOKEN
- OPENAI_API_KEY
- PINECONE_API_KEY
- SEARCHAPI_API_KEY
- SERPAPI_API_KEY
- UPSTASH_VECTOR_REST_URL
- UPSTASH_VECTOR_REST_TOKEN
- VECTARA_CUSTOMER_ID
- VECTARA_CORPUS_ID
- VECTARA_API_KEY
<Admonition type="tip">
Set _`LANGFLOW_VARIABLES_TO_GET_FROM_ENVIRONMENT`_ as a comma-separated list
of variables (e.g. _`"VARIABLE1, VARIABLE2"`_) or as a JSON-encoded string
(e.g. _`'["VARIABLE1", "VARIABLE2"]'`_).
