Add an `Export .env` button to the Environment Variables page

Feature Request

As discussed here Download Environment variables · Issue #6541 · vercel/vercel · GitHub

It would be great to get an Export .env button on the Environment Variables page. Whilst this feature exists in the Vercel CLI, it is not easy to do if you are just using the Vercel admin.

I mocked this up as part of the original github issue, just a simple button with a dropdown to allow you to select the .env file to download.

they say It is actually imeplemented just install the vercel package and link to the project then you can download the file right away.

Thanks for sharing this idea, @aaronlayton! The current recommendation is to use the CLI vercel env pull [file] command as you saw in the original issue on GitHub. I’ve shared your feedback internally and will circle back with any comments.

If you use vercel dev to run projects locally, then you can pull a copy into the .vercel directory using vercel pull. But that still requires using the CLI. :smile:

This feature request would add a button in the UI for people who prefer that instead of terminal commands.

Yes please, many people are already asking in the GH issue linked by OP.
