For normal SDK usage, VERIFIEDX_API_KEY is the only environment variable you need. Both SDKs read it automatically:
  • Python: init_verifiedx()
  • TypeScript: initVerifiedX()

​
Required

VariableRequiredDefaultDescription
VERIFIEDX_API_KEYYes—Your VerifiedX runtime API key

​
Minimal .env

.env
VERIFIEDX_API_KEY=your_runtime_key
That is enough for a normal integration.
You do not need extra config code just to use VERIFIEDX_API_KEY. The SDKs pick it up automatically from os.environ in Python and process.env in TypeScript.

​
Optional

Most builders can ignore this section. These are the only optional variables most teams are likely to care about:
VariableDefaultWhen to use it
VERIFIEDX_ENVIRONMENTprodSeparate production from staging or dev traffic
VERIFIEDX_PROJECT_IDSDK defaultSplit logs across multiple projects or services
VERIFIEDX_BASE_URLhttps://api.verifiedx.mePoint the SDK at a non-default VerifiedX API endpoint

​
Practical example

.env
VERIFIEDX_API_KEY=your_runtime_key
VERIFIEDX_ENVIRONMENT=staging
VERIFIEDX_PROJECT_ID=workflow-ops

​
Notes

  • Set VERIFIEDX_ENVIRONMENT to something like staging or dev outside production so your logs stay clearly separated.
  • Use VERIFIEDX_PROJECT_ID if multiple apps or workflows share the same VerifiedX account.
  • Use VERIFIEDX_BASE_URL only if you have been told to point at a different VerifiedX API endpoint.
The SDKs also support additional advanced runtime and debug environment variables, but most builders never need them. This page intentionally keeps the main setup surface small.
