​Collection in environment variable will be a life changing experience in Blueprism World. Environment variable for a whole process can be defined in a single collection. this reduces number of environment variables to be defined

Hello Jose!
Could you please describe better? Is this really a solution? The only way that i'm thinking on how to take a Variable in the position 5 of 9 (for example) is by looping the collection of environment variables and making desicions if they exist or not and throw an exception if it not exist... I think that is an unnecesary logic, perhaps Im wrong and Im misunderstanding your Idea, so I'm curious how you're thinking this will work

​my point is, a collection in environment variable could replace use of config file. most of the developers are currently following a practice to keep an excel file which is populated with network paths, website urls,etc they basically get this to collection and use that inside process. having a collection available in environment variable can replace the config file.

We're working around this by adding CSV content in the environment variables and parsing it to a collection within the process. Works well, but isn't the best UX of course.
