Environment Variables — Scrapeman Docs

Setup

Environments are stored as .env.yaml files under .scrapeman/environments/ in your workspace.

# .scrapeman/environments/dev.env.yaml
name: Development
variables:
  - key: baseUrl
    value: https://api.example.com
    secret: false
  - key: token
    value: sk-live-abc123
    secret: true

Variable resolution

{{var}} syntax works across: URL, params, headers, body, auth fields, proxy fields, and Scrape.do fields.

Scope precedence (highest to lowest):

Per-request overrides
Active environment
Collection-level variables
Built-in dynamics

Built-in dynamic variables

These re-resolve on every send:

Variable	Output
`{{random}}`	Random 8-char alphanumeric string
`{{uuid}}`	UUID v4
`{{timestamp}}`	Unix timestamp in milliseconds
`{{timestampSec}}`	Unix timestamp in seconds
`{{isoDate}}`	ISO 8601 date string
`{{randomInt}}`	Random integer 0–9999

 Secret variables
 
Variables with secret: true are masked in the UI (shown as ••••••). They resolve
    normally at send time. History entries preserve the template ({{token}}) on disk, never the
    resolved secret value.
