What did you expect to happen?
provisioning on

Can you copy/paste the configuration(s) that you are having problems with?
env:
GF_SERVER_ROOT_URL: http://grafana.monitoring.svc.cluster.local
FEATURE_TOGGLE_ADMIN_PAGE: true
FEATURE_TOGGLES_ENABLED: true
FEATURE_TOGGLE_PROVISIONING: true
GF_FEATURE_TOGGLES_ENABLE: provisioning
Grafana feature toggles are typically enabled using the GF_FEATURE_TOGGLES_<FEATURE_NAME>=true environment variable pattern, where <FEATURE_NAME> is the camelCase name of the feature
Added:
GF_FEATURE_TOGGLES_PROVISIONING: true
Still the same result. It looks like some env vars are ignored. In statrup logs:

There is no in logs, this is what I’m talking about.
While env variable GF_FEATURE_TOGGLES_PROVISIONING: true
present in container.
I got Git Sync (i.e. also provisioning) working for the grafana/grafana:12.0.0 image by setting this in my docker-compose.yml:
environment:
GF_FEATURE_TOGGLES_ENABLE: "provisioning,kubernetesDashboards"
Grafana log:
msg="Config overridden from Environment variable" var="GF_FEATURE_TOGGLES_ENABLE=provisioning,kubernetesDashboards"
Docs from the grafana.ini inside the image:
[feature_toggles]
# there are currently two ways to enable feature toggles in the `grafana.ini`.
# you can either pass an array of feature you want to enable to the `enable` field or
# configure each toggle by setting the name of the toggle to true/false. Toggles set to true/false
# will take presidence over toggles in the `enable` list.
;enable = feature1,feature2
;feature1 = true
;feature2 = false
As far as I understand, only existing settings can be overwritten by environment variables, but no new settings added. Thus the latter way doesn’t work, I guess.

Thanks, it works!
GF_FEATURE_TOGGLES_ENABLE: "provisioning,kubernetesDashboards"
