Error: The app has not been configured with a WORKSPACE_ID environment variable

Question

I've changed the workspace ID in both my env file as well as my app.js file just in case. I've installed all the necessary SDK's and have done everything according to the instructions here.

I swapped out the workspace files with my own workspace. But I made all the necessary changes including changing the workspace ID. Not quite sure why i'm still getting the error. Any help would be much appreciated!

Edited: Here are the changes I made to my code

I had the same problem a few days ago. And, to solved this, you can paste the WORKSPACE_ID in this line too!

But, if you want use the .env file, make sure the are no spaces between = and the end of the line.

I will put the print of my app.js as an example to help you:

Actually, both ways work.

My example show this:

  username = "<iwdiaowd-jioawjd-ioajgr-ogxgxajofa>" 
  password = "<xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>"  

  var workspace = "<59583409583495834590385394>"`

Try edit your .env:

WLP_SKIP_MAXPERMSIZE=true
VCAP_SERVICES={"conversation": [{"name": "conversation-service","label": "conversation","plan": "free","credentials": {"url": "https://gateway.watsonplatform.net/conversation/api","isStreaming": false,"password": "-ReplaceMe-","username": "-ReplaceMe-"}}]}
COLLECTION_NAME=workspace
WORKSPACE_ID=iwdiaowd-jioawjd-ioajgr-ogxgxajofa
LOGGING_ENABLED=false
