DenoKV - Missing DENO_KV_ACCESS_TOKEN environment

error: Uncaught (in promise) NotFound: Missing DENO_KV_ACCESS_TOKEN environment variable. Please set it to your access token from https://dash.deno.com/account.: environment variable not found

Can't find much info in the docs to be able to set this, where do we set it? I tried to pass a second option to the DenoKV() to set the accessToken, but it didn't work.

DENO_KV_ACCESS_TOKEN is an environment variable. You can set it the same you would when running any task in the CLI. On POSIX systems, it'd be run like so:

DENO_KV_ACCESS_TOKEN=abc123 deno run --unstable-kv script.ts

DENO_KV_ACCESS_TOKEN=abc123 deno run --unstable-kv script.ts

Similarly, on Windows using set.

@iuioiua is the any chance we could get this setup to be passed to Deno.openKV() as an argument, we have multiple kv stores and would be much easier to manage the config /env in code.... Deno.openKv({}, {token: abc123}) This would be much nicer. This way we could explicitly set which KV backend we are connecting to Nope its not working Yep latest canary not working!
