Where do processEnv variables need to be defined?

[mchelen-gov]

When using processEnv variables such as Authorization: {{$processEnv PRODSECRET}} where does the PRODSECRET environment variable need to be defined?

For example it seems like # 1 is the only way that works:

1. In ~/.bashrc:

export PRODSECRET=abcd

2. In terminal before running VSCode:

export PRODSECRET=abcd
vscode

3. In VSCode terminal:

export PRODSECRET=abcd

Any update on getting this fixed? would be awesome if I didn't have to redefine variables that are already set

This feature still does not work. One can not create a fully working shared workspace without this feature.
