You can use the Netlify's config file also ... You can find documentation here. Also i wanted to have the same ENV variables with with different values per branch/environment. This workaround worked for me:

Create a netlify.toml file like:

[build]
  NUXT_ENV_BASE_API = "/api"
  NUXT_ENV_HOST_DOMAIN = "https://your-domain.gr"

[context.branch-deploy]
  environment = { NUXT_ENV_BASE_API = "/dev-api", NUXT_ENV_HOST_DOMAIN = "https://dev.your-domain.gr" }

[context.production]
  environment = { NUXT_ENV_BASE_API = "/api", NUXT_ENV_HOST_DOMAIN = "https://your-domain.gr" }

And deploy in Netlify ...
