Currently, optional environment variables related to authentication providers, email settings, and calendar integrations such as:
AUTH_GOOGLE_CLIENT_IDAUTH_GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRETEMAIL_SMTP_HOSTEMAIL_SMTP_USER- and others
must be set externally via environment files or Docker configuration before starting the app. These variables are essential for enabling features like Google/Microsoft OAuth, SMTP email sending, and calendar integrations.
Problem
There is no option to configure these variables directly through the Twenty CRM user interface. This limitation makes managing these settings cumbersome and requires manual editing of environment files and app restarts.
Why this matters
- It complicates setup for non-technical users.
- It prevents dynamic changes without restarting the application.
- It leads to user-unfriendly workarounds.
Suggested enhancement
Provide UI support within Twenty CRM for configuring optional environment variables related to external services, such as OAuth, SMTP, and calendar providers. Features might include:
- A dedicated settings page for entering API keys and secrets.
- Input validation for correctness.
- Ability to apply changes dynamically without full restarts, if feasible.
This enhancement would improve usability and reduce barriers for users relying on these integrations.
