Kubernetes cluster creation fails - CLOUD_API_URL env var not documented and not in docker-compose.yml

[poyrazK]

Why is this an issue?

When creating a Kubernetes cluster, provisioning fails with "CLOUD_API_URL is required but not set in environment" even after setting CLOUD_API_KEY. The CLOUD_API_URL env var is required by the k8s provisioner but is not documented and not set in docker-compose.yml.

What is causing it?

The k8s provisioner at internal/repositories/k8s/provisioner.go lines 123-126 checks for both CLOUD_API_KEY and CLOUD_API_URL:

apiURL := os.Getenv("CLOUD_API_URL")
if apiURL == "" {
    return p.failCluster(ctx, cluster, "CLOUD_API_URL is required but not set in environment", nil)
}

Neither docker-compose.yml nor .env set this variable.

How can it be solved?

Add CLOUD_API_URL to docker-compose.yml environment variables.
