466466If the name doesn't arrive, check for one of these causes:
467467
468468* **You set it on the computer that runs Desktop**: Desktop doesn't pass a value you set there to the SSH session
469* **You exported it in a login file**: only login shells read a file such as `/etc/profile`. A value you `export` there reaches Claude Code that you start from a login shell. It doesn't reach a Desktop SSH session, because Desktop doesn't start Claude Code through a login shell.
469* **You exported it in `/etc/profile` or another file that only login shells read**: the name arrives when you run `claude` from a login shell, but not in a Desktop SSH session. Desktop doesn't start Claude Code through a login shell. Set the variable under `env` in the [managed settings file](https://code.claude.com/docs/en/desktop.md#managed-settings) on the remote machine instead.
470470* **A value has a space inside it**: Claude Code then copies none of the keys onto events or datapoints and reports no error. [Take the space out of the value](#multi-team-organization-support).
471471* **Something else already sets the variable**: in a session that the desktop app starts, a variable already set in the launch environment [takes precedence over settings files](https://code.claude.com/docs/en/settings-reference.md#how-env-values-interact-with-your-shell). The [debug log](https://code.claude.com/docs/en/debug-your-config.md) names each ignored variable. When a third-party Desktop deployment [names an OTLP endpoint](#how-managed-settings-lock-the-otlp-destination) in the environment it provides, that environment carries Desktop's own `OTEL_RESOURCE_ATTRIBUTES`.
