You need to actually add the environment variables, according the official tutorial:

var builder = new ConfigurationBuilder()
    .SetBasePath(env.ContentRootPath)
    .AddJsonFile($"appsettings.{env.EnvironmentName}.json", optional: false, reloadOnChange: true)
    // do not forget to add environment variables to your config!
    .AddEnvironmentVariables();
