We just introduced turborepo into the mix and had to re-create all of our environment variables in a new project. And now the original project has a duplicate version of the shared one, so I have to remove them and use the shared one instead (to reduce risk of having different values). Just an idea for a Quality of Life improvement! Thanks! Pauline P. Narvas (@pawlean) · 2025-01-03 Thanks for sharing, Stephen! I shared this internally :slight_smile: Flyefe (@flyefe) · 2025-05-06 Environment Variable "MONGO_URI" references Secret "MONGO_URI", which does not exist. I have been having this issue for every commit i make, despite having the secret well provided in my environment variable  no commit i make deploys anymore. i have even made a new repository with no luck still.
