Hi All ,
Is there a way by which we can use the env variable as the port number which has been defined in the pod ?

How can we refer in the container port section below ?

Ports:
— containerPort : <Env Variable >
env :
— name : MyPort
value : “8080”

Md. Raise Azam:
@Tej_Singh_Rana Can you help me with the above ?

Deepak Ladwa:
@Md. Raise Azam I don’t think so, as containerPort field supports only integer value.

Mainly containerPort does not really affect connectivity and only informational for documentation. It is used by developers to understand the port that the container listens to.

It can only be referenced from service by the containerPort name.
