Add Environment Variables

In the .env file found in the root of the website, update the values with the keys found in your Kentico Kontent project:

  1. Choose Project settings from the app menu. 
  2. Under Production Environment Settings, choose API keys
  3. Paste the respective keys into the .env file

Example .env contents:

PROJECT_ID=1a1b1111-2c22-3333-d4ef-ghij5klm5n5o

USE_PREVIEW=true

PREVIEW_KEY=ew0KIC...

DOCS_DIR=./docs

DOC_CONTENT_TYPE=documentation

PAGE_CONTENT_TYPE=page

The Kontent + Docusaurus sample populates the docs directory with markdown content and uses the documentation and page content types within Kentico Kontent to determine navigation vs. content pages.  These values are configurable in the .env file, but changing them is not recommended.

Preview

Setting USE_PREVIEW to false will cause the sample to use only published versions of the content in Kentico Kontent.
