Issues with runtime variables and secrets
Hello guys
I have a cloudflare worker app that's connected to a git repo and auto deploys the new changes whenever I push.
But each time it does that I always need to add my database credentials from the dashboard
while if I use wrangler I don't have to set it every time it just works
am I doing something wrong?

Hey @Tee , just tried to reproduce on my end but wasn't able to. This seems to be working as intended. Are you sure you're using secrets and not vars?
If you use secrets, those should be available in your next deploy. If you use vars, those would need to be specified in your wrangler.toml, or you can specify keep_vars (https://developers.cloudflare.com/workers/wrangler/configuration/#top-level-only-keys)

so I guess im using vars
Yup exactly! You can switch to using secrets, or specify the keep_vars like I mentioned above 🙂
Or you can specify the var in your wrangler.toml. That's probably the best route
Thank you so much
i specified keep_vars and it works now
