This solution allows the environment variables to be passed to the container when it is launched by AWS Fargate using Amazon ECS. The task definition is a text file that describes one or more containers that form an application. It contains various parameters for configuring the containers, such as CPU and memory requirements, network mode, and environment variables. The environment parameter is an array of key-value pairs that specify environment variables to pass to a container. Defining an array that includes the environment variables under the entryPoint parameter within the task definition will not pass them to the container, but use them as command-line arguments for overriding the default entry point of a container. Defining an array that includes the environment variables under the environment or entryPoint parameter within the service definition will not pass them to the container, but cause an error because these parameters are not valid for a service definition.
