Invalid environment variable name (multiline string) about aci-deploy HOT 11 CLOSED

I've enabled the debugging and found the point of failure:

##[debug]Predeployment Steps Started
##[debug]Deployment Step Started
##[debug]Deployment Failed with Error: Error: The environment variable name in container 'localizationserver' of container group 'localizationserver' is invalid. A valid environment variable name must start with alphabetic character or '_', followed by a string of alphanumeric characters or '_' (e.g. 'my_name',  or 'MY_NAME',  or 'MyName').

It seems some error on container creation itself:

I've removed the environment variables and everything works fine now.
But I need them. :/

Well, I think I've found the issue.
One of my secure environment variables was a multiline string (an SSH key).

After removing it, the action has worked well.
It solved my issue, but it can be a problem for other people.

@brenoalvs Thanks for pointing this out. We'll call this out in the action readme file.

@anraghun are we good to close this? (Hoping doc update has been done)

I have the same issue, but my environment variable is 'ASPNETCORE_ENVIRONMENT'='Development'. I have no dot, neither multilines in my variable, and I cannot remove it, I need it. Please help me about it!

I resolved the problem, it seams that you have to write double quote : "ASPNETCORE_ENVIRONMENT"="Development"
