Director Service

Director service configuration options

Common Configuration

PORT=1234

Director will listen on that port

DASHBOARD_URL="http://localhost:8080"

"Run URL" shown by Cypress agent when running tests

INACTIVITY_TIMEOUT_SECONDS=180

Director uses the timeout value to define how long we should wait before checking for a run’s inactivity.

ALLOWED_KEYS=null

List of comma delimited record keys (provided to the Cypress Runner using --key option) which are accepted by the director service.

This can be useful when cypress is running on external CI servers and we need to expose director to the internet.

Empty or not provided variable means that all record keys are allowed.

This functionality is only supported when using the mongo execution driver.
