Expected Behavior

In the doc it's written that OPENAI_API_KEY is a PersistentConfig, and that You can update the values of PersistentConfig environment variables directly from within Open WebUI... however, I've looked in the Admin panel, and I cannot find anywhere where you set this key... am I missing something?
