Describes the environment variables required to run the server.

| ZENDESK_EMAIL | No | Your Zendesk email address. Deprecated API token authentication; Zendesk is retiring API tokens. Used together with ZENDESK_API_KEY. | |
| ZENDESK_API_KEY | No | Your Zendesk API token. Deprecated authentication method; Zendesk is retiring API tokens. Used together with ZENDESK_EMAIL. | |
| ZENDESK_CLIENT_ID | No | The Identifier of your registered public OAuth client. When set, OAuth authentication takes precedence over the deprecated API token authentication. | |

| ZENDESK_OAUTH_REDIRECT_URI | No | OAuth redirect URI. Change it if port 4567 is in use, or if the client is registered with a different redirect URL. Must match a redirect URL on the OAuth client exactly. | http://localhost:4567/callback |
