# Multi-line environment variable values

> Environment variables now accept PEM keys, JSON service accounts, and newline-containing secrets, and Bolt schedule-level overrides survive redeploys.

*July 22, 2026*

Environment variables now accept real-world secrets: PEM private keys, JSON service-account keys, connection strings, and any other value containing newlines, quotes, or special characters. Previously these were rejected or silently dropped.

Schedule-level overrides also round-trip properly now: after deploying, reopening a Bolt schedule shows the override badge and the value you set.
