LINUX : Configure Application with $HOME in env variables not working for me

I am trying to set the FUSION16_PROFILE_DIR environment variable for Linux, but using the $HOME variable in the environment argumentsin Ayon is not working.

It is creating a directory named $HOME in the home directory, which I did not expect.

Do I have my syntax incorrect for json or Ayon?

Use {HOME} if it means you have an existing env var named HOME. Does that help?

Thank you, yes {HOME} worked like a charm.

For reference, Here’s a bit further details about how environment variables are used in application addon settings.
