Domino automatically injects several environment variables whenever it runs your code, as part of the context of your run.
If you’re looking to define your own environment variables, see Environment variables for secure credential storage.
First, you can use these to programmatically determine if your code is running in Domino or not. This is useful in cases where your code might do something different when running locally vs running on Domino.
Second, these variables can be useful when generating artifacts or outputs, for example, a report you produce might refer to the run number.
