# Runtime Config
If you wish to reference environment variables within your Nuxt 3 app, you will need to use runtime config.
When referencing these variables within your components, you will have to use the `useRuntimeConfig` composable in your setup method (or Nuxt plugin). In the `server/` portion of your app, you can use `useRuntimeConfig` without any import.
[Read more about runtime config](/guide/features/runtime-config).
## Migration
1. Add any environment variables that you use in your app to the `runtimeConfig` property of the `nuxt.config` file.
1. Migrate `process.env` to `useRuntimeConfig` throughout the Vue part of your app.
## Example
::code-group
```ts [nuxt.config.ts]
import { defineNuxtConfig } from 'nuxt'
export default defineNuxtConfig({
runtimeConfig: {
secretKey: '', // variable that can only be accessed on the server side
public: {
BASE_URL: process.env.BASE_URL || 'https://nuxtjs.org' // variable that can also be accessed on the client side
}
},
})
```
```vue [pages/index.vue]
<script setup>
const config = useRuntimeConfig().public
// instead of process.env.BASE_URL you will now access config.BASE_URL
</script>
```
```ts [server/api/hello.ts]
const config = useRuntimeConfig().public
export default (req, res) => {
// you can now access config.BASE_URL
return {
baseURL: config.BASE_URL
}
}
```
