 > if both environment variable and CLI flag are used, the CLI flag will have priority.
 
-- `TAURI_PATH_DEPTH` — Number of levels to traverse and find tauri configuration file.
-- `TAURI_DEV_SERVER_PORT` — Port to use for the CLI built-in dev server.
-- `TAURI_DEV_WATCHER_IGNORE_FILE` — A `.gitignore`-style file to control which files should be watched by the CLI in `dev` command.
-- `TAURI_SKIP_DEVSERVER_CHECK` — Skip waiting for the frontend dev server to start before building the tauri application.
-- `TAURI_SKIP_UPDATE_CHECK` — Skip checking for a newer CLI version before exiting the CLI process.
-- `TAURI_TRAY` — Set this var to `ayatana` to use `libayatana-appindicator` for system tray on Linux or set it `appindicator` to use `libappindicator`.
-  - For `deb` bundle target, the CLI will add the appropriate package as a dependency, if unset, the CLI will default to `ayatana`.
-  - For `appimage` bundle target, the CLI will copy the appropriate package to the appimage. if unset, the CLI will make a guess based on what package is installed on the developer system.
-- `TAURI_FIPS_COMPLIANT` — Specify WiX `FipsCompliant` option
-- `TAURI_PRIVATE_KEY` — Private key used to sign your app bundles
-- `TAURI_KEY_PASSWORD` — The private key password, see `TAURI_PRIVATE_KEY`
+- `CI` — If set, the CLI will run in CI mode and won't require any user interaction.
+- `TAURI_CLI_CONFIG_DEPTH` — Number of levels to traverse and find tauri configuration file.
+- `TAURI_CLI_PORT` — Port to use for the CLI built-in dev server.
+- `TAURI_CLI_WATCHER_IGNORE_FILENAME` — Name of a `.gitignore`-style file to control which files should be watched by the CLI in `dev` command. The CLI will look for this file name in each directory.
+- `TAURI_CLI_NO_DEV_SERVER_WAIT` — Skip waiting for the frontend dev server to start before building the tauri application.
+- `TAURI_LINUX_AYATANA_APPINDICATOR` — Set this var to `true` or `1` to force usage of `libayatana-appindicator` for system tray on Linux.
+- `TAURI_BUNDLER_WIX_FIPS_COMPLIANT` — Specify the bundler's WiX `FipsCompliant` option.
+- `TAURI_SIGNINING_PRIVATE_KEY` — Private key used to sign your app bundles, can be either a string or a path to the file.
+- `TAURI_SIGNINING_PRIVATE_KEY_PASSWORD` — The signging private key password, see `TAURI_SIGNINING_PRIVATE_KEY`.
 - `APPLE_CERTIFICATE` — Base64 encoded of the `.p12` certificate for code signing. To get this value, run `openssl base64 -in MyCertificate.p12 -out MyCertificate-base64.txt`.
 - `APPLE_CERTIFICATE_PASSWORD` — The password you used to export the certificate.
 - `APPLE_ID` — The Apple ID used to notarize the application. If this environment variable is provided, `APPLE_PASSWORD` must also be set. Alternatively, `APPLE_API_KEY` and `APPLE_API_ISSUER` can be used to authenticate.
 - `APPLE_PASSWORD` — The Apple password used to authenticate for application notarization. Required if `APPLE_ID` is specified. An app-specific password can be used. Alternatively to entering the password in plaintext, it may also be specified using a '@keychain:' or '@env:' prefix followed by a keychain password item name or environment variable name.
 - `APPLE_API_KEY` — Alternative to `APPLE_ID` and `APPLE_PASSWORD` for notarization authentication using JWT.
-  - This option will search the following directories in sequence for a private key file with the name of 'AuthKey_<api_key>.p8': './private_keys', '~/private_keys', '~/.private_keys', and '~/.appstoreconnect/private_keys'. Additionally, you can set environment variable $API_PRIVATE_KEYS_DIR or a user default API_PRIVATE_KEYS_DIR to specify the directory where your AuthKey file is located.
+  - This option will search the following directories in sequence for a private key file with the name of `AuthKey\_<api_key>.p8`: `./private_keys`, `~/private_keys`, `~/.private_keys`, and `~/.appstoreconnect/private_keys`. Additionally, you can set environment variable `API_PRIVATE_KEYS_DIR` to specify the directory where your AuthKey file is located.
   - See [creating API keys](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/appstoreconnectapi/creating_api_keys_for_app_store_connect_api) for more information.
+- `API_PRIVATE_KEYS_DIR` — Specify the directory where your AuthKey file is located. See `APPLE_API_KEY`.
 - `APPLE_API_ISSUER` — Issuer ID. Required if `APPLE_API_KEY` is specified.
 - `APPLE_SIGNING_IDENTITY` — The identity used to code sign. Overwrites `tauri.conf.json > tauri > bundle > macOS > signingIdentity`.
 - `APPLE_PROVIDER_SHORT_NAME` — If your Apple ID is connected to multiple teams, you have to specify the provider short name of the team you want to use to notarize your app. Overwrites `tauri.conf.json > tauri > bundle > macOS > providerShortName`.
-- `CI` — If set, the CLI will run in CI mode and won't require any user interaction.
+- `APPLE_DEVELOPMENT_TEAM` — TODO
+- `TAURI_WEBVIEW_AUTOMATION` — Enables webview automation (Linux Only).
+- `TAURI_ANDROID_PROJECT_PATH` — Path of the tauri android project, usually will be `<project>/src-tauri/gen/android`.
+- `TAURI_IOS_PROJECT_PATH` — Path of the tauri iOS project, usually will be `<project>/src-tauri/gen/ios`.
