Question

<https docs v1 prefect io core concepts configuration html user configuration> mentions an environment variable `PREFECT USER CONFIG PATH` Is the expected behavior once this is exported eg `export PREFECT USER CONFIG PATH= a b c` the ` prefect` dir should be at ` a b c prefect` gt By default Prefect will look for a user configuration file at `$HOME prefect config toml` but you can change that location by setting the environment variable `PREFECT USER CONFIG PATH` appropriately Please note the double underscore ` ` in the variable name

Does anybody know if this is the case or not

At the moment I am setting this PREFECT USER CONFIG PATH env var and it appears to be being ignored and my $HOME dir is being used regardless
