we are struggling to get the environment variable for the AWS working with the new 24.4 version of Connect. Any help or ideas would be awesome!

Hi @Bruce
I have tested the user location just yesterday on latest connect and seems to be working fine.
From the error it seems you are having issue on the environment variables setup, may I ask on what Os are you using it ? 
if you are on OSX you might have different options to do so depending on the shell type in use.

Ok, thanks. So on windows it should be fine then... The attached is my Mac. We have a number of different users and machines. Just wanted to make sure we solid before rolling out and then having issues across production department.

Hi @Bruce

osx is a bit trickier for environment variables to setup, but the following should work.
(please note I'm not an osx user myself so I had to rely on some company hive mind for the following)

1) check the current shell in use with : 

Quote

echo $0

2) depending on your shell in use edit bash or zsh profiles:

you can append the export command to the .bash_profile or .zshrc file.

Open Terminal and type :
 

Quote

nano ~/.bash_profile

or
 

Quote

nano ~/.zshrc.

you can then add the environment variables in this file as: 
 

Quote

export ENVIRONMENTVARIABLE=THEVALUE

Once done save and quit.
If you want to load the environment variables rigth away just source the file with : 

 

Quote

source ~/.bash_profile

or

Quote

source ~/.zshrc.

Hope it helps ! 
let us know.
Cheers.
