+You can also configure the session driver using environment variables. When defined in the configuration file, these variables are inlined at build time. If you need to override them at runtime, define the driver configuration in a separate file. Then use the module as the [driver's entrypoint](/en/reference/session-driver-reference/#entrypoint).
+
+The following example configures the Redis driver with runtime variables in a file located in your `src` directory:
+
+```ts title="src/session-driver.ts"
+import type { SessionDriverConfig } from "astro";
+import { sessionDrivers } from "astro/config";
+
+export default function (): SessionDriverConfig {
+  return sessionDrivers.redis({
+    url: process.env.REDIS_URL,
+  });
+}
+```
+
+You can then use this file as the driver entrypoint in your Astro configuration:
+
+```js title="astro.config.mjs" {7-9}
+import { defineConfig, sessionDrivers } from "astro/config";
+import vercel from "@astrojs/vercel";
+
+export default defineConfig({

+  }
+});

 ## Interacting with session data
 
 The [`session` object](/en/reference/api-reference/#session) allows you to interact with the stored user state (e.g. adding items to a shopping cart) and the session ID (e.g. deleting the session ID cookie when logging out). The object is accessible as `Astro.session` in your Astro components and pages and as `context.session` object in API endpoints, middleware, and actions.
