Hi @BenLeung ,

This is weird. I did a test but It shows the display name.

I suggest you set the default value of your environment variables as a workaround so that you don't need to set the values when you import the solution again.

Besides, I suggest you re-export the solution and import it again to check if it will be resolved.

If it doens't work , you could try the workaround above and open a support ticket to ask for help.

Disclaimer: This is not a Microsoft supported solution but what worked in my case.
I developed the solution in an English based environment and wanted to import in a Portuguese one.
Start by exporting the solution as managed and unzip it.
Open the unziped solution and you’ll find a folder called “environmentvariabledefinitions” and inside are the folders with your environment variables.
Open the XML files inside of that folders.

Double the “label description” line, then change the description as you please and the language code according to the language that you want to add.
Do this to each environment variable file and save it.

Zip all the componentes and import in your destination environment.

As a follow up to the solution of @InesTeixeira
You can add the descriptions with the desired language code in a supported way as follows:

Add language package
First you need to add the language package of the target environment to your source environment.
Go to admin.powerplatform.microsoft.com and open your source environment where you want to export the solution from. Go to Settings - Product - Languages. Choose the language of your target environment and "Apply".
This might take some minutes.

Add translations to solution
When the language package is added, go back to your solution and click Translations - Export translations:
This will download a zip-folder. Unzip it and open the file "CrmTranslations.xml" in Excel. There you see a empty column with the language code of the package you just added (in my case 1031 for German). Populate the translations. I just duplicated my values from the English column (1033) as I didn't need any translation.
Save the file. Go back to your unzipped folder. Select both files and zip them (Send to - Compressed (zipped) folder).
Go back to your solution and click Translations - Import solutions. Choose your newly zipped-folder.

Export your solution and import it to the target environment.

Best regards
Carole
