# Automatically injected environment variables

Nullplatform automatically injects a set of environment variables into your application at runtime. These variables reflect [the scope your application is deployed to](/docs/agent-backed-scopes/), including the account, namespace, deployment, and any dimensions used for that release.

Here are the environment variables that are injected:

- **`NP_ACCOUNT`**:
    - **Description**: Identifies the application account slug.
    - **Example**: `main-account`

- **`NP_APPLICATION`**:
    - **Description**: Specifies the application slug.
    - **Example**: `users-api`

- **`NP_DEPLOYMENT_ID`**:
    - **Description**: The unique ID for the current deployment.
    - **Example**: `748631913`

- **`NP_NAMESPACE`**:
    - **Description**: The namespace associated with the application.
    - **Example**: `platform`

- **`NP_RELEASE_SEMVER`**:
    - **Description**: The semantic version number of the current release.
    - **Example**: `1.1.34`

- **`NP_SCOPE`**:
    - **Description**: The scope slug where the application is deployed.
    - **Example**: `production`

- **`NP_DOMAIN`**:
    - **Description**: The domain name associated with the scope.
    - **Example**: `example.com`

- **`NP_DIMENSION_*`**:
    - **Description**: Dimension values on the scope, where `*` is replaced by the dimension name.
