Hi everyone! I am currently working with Octavia-CLI to redeploy our airbyte instance. I am following the tutorial how to set it up and creating sources and destinations is no issues at all. However, my stored passwords in my local ~/.octavia file are not exported into my airbyte instance. Does anyone know what might be failing? Airbyte instance: Version 0.40.23, Running with docker on a GCP Virtual Machine Octavia Cli: Installed with docker run, according to this My ~/.octavia file includes:

AIRTABLE_API_KEY="password"

The configuration file for airtable inclues:

tables: [Reported Time] # REQUIRED

api_key: ${AIRTABLE_API_KEY} # SECRET

base_id: appWvfaXxrKlmO7aP # REQUIRED

When I run octavia apply, it recognises that I have updated my secret password and updates the configuration. However, when I go into the airbyte UI and look at airtable it says ‘Invalid API key’ meaning the environment variable haven’t been applied

does AIRTABLE_API_KEY is available in the shell you use when you run octavia apply ?

Yes it is available in the same shell

sounds weird

I figured it out! Octavia applies quotations (“”) to env variables. You have to define env variables like this: AIRTABLE_API_KEY=password Pretty easy fix, but difficult to troubleshoot. Thanks anyways! 🙂

a yes i saw that when i tried octavia but does’nt remember
