Hi, I try to put into my meltano.yml an environment variable. I exported my variable XXX to environment. However, when I'm running meltano locally, I get an error saying that it was not recognized. Could you please tell me what am I doing wrong? According to documentation it is a good way https://docs.meltano.com/guide/configuration/#overriding-discoverable-plugin-properties

*Your meltano.yml project file*, under the plugin's config key.

Inside values, environment variables can be referenced as $VAR (as a single word) or ${VAR} (inside a word).
