@msfussell ok to close this? or did we need this in other SDKs?

[elena-kolevska]

I just created an issue for it in python-sdk dapr/python-sdk#653.
Sending a PR in a bit.

[elena-kolevska]

Here's the PR: dapr/python-sdk#654. It's a very small update.

@elena-kolevska - Does this need to be done with other SDKs?

[elena-kolevska]

The only code change we did was in the JS sdk, all the other ones already had this feature, but not all of them had the docs properly updated. Here's a list:

• python-sdk - Documents usage of DAPR_API_TOKEN python-sdk#654
• js-sdk - If an api token is not passed in the constructor, check the env variable js-sdk#548
• go-sdk - already had the feature documented
• dotnet-sdk - already had the feature documented
• java-sdk - Adds docs for client initialisation with env variables java-sdk#992

---

• php-sdk - Missing documentation - decided we're not doing it
• cpp-sdk - Doesn't support this feature
• rust-sdk - Doesnt support this feature

@cicoyle would you be able to help with the java-sdk docs for this? (I've never worked with this sdk and don't have the environment set up to test). I would suggest copying the Initialising the client section from the python-sdk docs and adapting the snippets to Java.

[elena-kolevska]

I added this PR for the Java sdk, but since I'm not very familiar with the code I'm gonna rely on Cassie or someone else to confirm it's correct.

[cicoyle]

oops, I missed your ping on here. thanks @elena-kolevska

[elena-kolevska]

I think we can now consider this done.

[hhunter-ms]

@elena-kolevska sounds good - closing as resolved!
