Configure Environment Variables
Some features of Bitwarden are not configured by the bitwarden.sh installer. Configure these settings by editing the environment file, located at ./bwdata/env/global.override.env. This .env file comes pre-baked with configurable variables (see Included variables), however there are additional variables which can be manually added (see Optional variables).
Whenever you make changes to global.override.env, perform a ./bitwarden.sh restart to apply your changes.
