Updates an existing environment variable at specified project. Send values as plain text; every value is encrypted before it is stored. Value semantics: omitting a value (null) KEEPS the stored value — this is how a secret value survives an update, since read endpoints never return it; sending an empty string CLEARS it.

## Path parameters

- `projectName` string, required
- `name` string, required
