 Learn about the OTLP exporter configuration see, [OTLP Exporter Configuration](https://opentelemetry.io/docs/languages/sdk-configuration/otlp-exporter/).
 
 | Name | Description |
 |---|---|
 | `OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT` | A base endpoint URL for any signal type, with an optionally specified port number. This setting is helpful when you’re sending more than one signal to the same endpoint and want one environment variable to control the endpoint. Example:  `http://otel.service.k8se-apps:4317/` |
 | `OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_PROTOCOL` | Specifies the OTLP transport protocol used for all telemetry data. The managed agent only supports `grpc`. Value: `grpc`. |
+| `OTEL_RESOURCE_ATTRIBUTES` | A comma-separated list of key-value pairs that define [resource attributes](https://opentelemetry.io/docs/specs/otel/resource/sdk/) attached to all telemetry data. The managed agent populates this variable with container app attributes such as the app name and environment. Some OpenTelemetry SDK implementations require you to explicitly enable environment-based resource detection to use these attributes. If you set this variable in the container app specification, your value overwrites the automatically injected value. |
 
 The other three environment variables are specific to Azure Container Apps, and are always injected. These variables hold agent’s endpoint URLs for each specific data type (logs, metrics, traces).
