RAILWAY_{serviceName}_STATIC_URL not working
I have an nginx container proxying to an application container and am trying to reference the application container url. The application container is named 'frontend' so I set an env variable equal to
${{RAILWAY_FRONTEND_STATIC_URL}} but it's coming through blank. What am I doing wrong here?

there's no need to set any variables yourself, just simply use
RAILWAY_SERVICE_FRONTEND_URL assuming your frontend service is named "frontend"...10 Replies

RAILWAY_SERVICE_FRONTEND_URL assuming your frontend service is named "frontend"yes it is
this variable is created by railway, there's no need to add it yourself
I made the intermediate variable just so i could quickly change values in railway and redeploy without having to do git commits and run it through that way. I have also tried without my own variable and it also did not work
show me where you are using the variable
nevermind, i just tried that again and it worked this time, maybe i had a typo the first time
thank you
haha no problem, another day another typo
subquestion, if i name the service with a
. in it do i just make that period an _ in the env var name, so site.com because RAILWAY_SITE_COM_STATIC_URL ?correct
spaces, periods, commas, etc, all get normalized to a underscore
and apha chars are always going to be uppercase
