Hello ! I am trying to make my Node Red backend server to be a part of Docker-based Testing Environment. So I decided to pass ${ENIRONMENTAL\_VARIABLES} to the confings of MySQL node and INFLUX\_DB nodes. It actually worked, but I have crutial fields such as user and password (for MySql Node) deleted in my Docker Node-Red version. The same happend to the token and organization field in the stackhero-Influxdb node configuration. I noticed that copiyng the MySql node and pasting to another installation of Node-Red also deletes user and password. I wonder if there is a way to pass ENVS to configurations of copied nodes ?
