> Cool! Try it on 2.9.0.Beta9 🙂 Please explain why you can’t change the variable through the console?

You shouldn’t change it on the console, because you should follow [Configure an S3 compatible object storage provider for uploads](https://meta.discourse.org/t/configure-an-s3-compatible-object-storage-provider-for-uploads/148916) and set it as environment variables 🙂
