Env variables with array types

If you are looking for help, please confirm the following...

• I confirm I have searched the Docs, Codemagic Sample Projects, and GitHub Discussions.
• I confirm the software versions on my local computer match the ones in CI environment (e.g. Xcode version, Gradle version). See here

Which mobile framework are you using?

Flutter (Dart)

Steps to reproduce

I want to config recipients as an env variable but it does not work because recipients is an array type. How can I get there in CodeMagic? I wonder if there is any workaround here?

artifacts:
  - app/app-develop-release.aab
publishing:
  email:
    recipients:
      - $EMAIL_RECIPIENTS

Expected results

emails - recipients as an env variable

Actual results

Not receive emails

Build id (optional)

No response

@dtrdic Thank you but I want to hide the list of recipients from file codemagic.yaml by setting env variables on CodeMagic editor

Hey @minhnt3, unfortunately, it's not possible to use the environment variable on that field. However, I have forwarded your suggestion and will let you know if we make any changes
