Environments on Vercel

[@gabrieltavares2861]

It's great that you guys are truly listening to our community. Latest videos was all about questions I saw being asked on Reddit, haha

[@coherentpanda7115]

Lee is often found in the subreddit for NextJS, so it's no surprise.

@@coherentpanda7115yes, saw him answering a guy today. I’m just new to nexts community so that was a surprise for me

1. Are you working locally at the main or development branches at 2:28? 2. have you created a development branch that will be merged with the main branch? 3. is your main branch the production branch? 4. Does Vercel create a preview even if only a main branch on GitHub exists? 5. Are you pushing the development or main branches to Vercel at 2:28? 6. Can I push my changes to a development branch on GitHub and then let Vercel pick it from there? The environment handling is very confusing. Could you make a video about GitHub integrations?

Is it possible to add a custom domain to the staged main branch (the deployment before assigning it to production)?

[@TomasJansson]

Nice one! Is it possible to have “stage” domains assigned to the deploy before promoting and then assign the production domains on promote?

[@VercelHQ]

Yes!

[@TomasJansson]

@@VercelHQ ok, but how? I don’t see docs around that.

[@TomasJansson]

I know I can promote a preview build, but what I would like to do is setting some stage domains for the main branch that will be assigned automatically, and then assign the production ones on promote. It would be really nice to not have to do the extra build. Today we have a dedicated branch to get a stage environment with custom domains.

im digging the often uploads and guides, thanks

[@majorhumbert676]

Can I create multiple deployments for a single branch? For example, I want two have two deployments for each commit to main, each using a different backend; one with production database and another for development. I know I can create multiple projects, but this becomes difficult to manage.

[@richardantao3249]

Vercel needs a bulk editor option for editing environment variables like DigitalOcean!

[@ipara_dev]

It's already available, copy all your variables and paste them into Vercel Environment Variables in the first "Key" input and Vercel automatically will add all your keys and values.

[@alexandrumorarasu3671]

Can we also create additional environments?

[@rajs1302]

can we use Vercel for hosting origin based app? For instance, if I've my web app running on Node and would like to use Vercel as a CDN with the Node app as origin. This allows me to use Node runtime for some pages and Edge runtime for pages which has Edge runtime set on a page.

[@cotyhamilton]

It wasn’t clear whether the app used build time or runtime environment variables (I don’t use next), but can you define runtime environment vars and update them on a live deployment without additional build and deploy?

[@aberba]

I don't think so. You'll need to redeploy. Envs seems to be injected into code/image during build time

[@CesarWilliamBR]

How can environment variables be protected by role? e.g., Only admins can view variable values.

[@VercelHQ]

Here are the different roles: vercel.com/docs/accounts/team-members-and-roles/access-roles

[@pulpml]

Great video! Could you make a video on setting up DNS records for use with Resend. I was having trouble setting TTL to AUTO because in Resend docs they want resend._domainkey TTL to be AUTO but there's no AUTO option on Vercel DNS. Thank you very much!

[@ahmedivy]

You bought the domain from vercel?

[@pulpml]

@@ahmedivy nah, bought it on Hostinger. Is that the reason why i don't have AUTO on TTL settings ?

[@ahmedivy]

@@pulpml if domain is not from vercel then whats the link between resend and vercel. I also bought domain from hostinger and configured dns records with resend and its working

[@nil.4]

Keep making this videos
