For now I am just creating a variable on the stack configuration, since I have one per environment but thinking if there is a more elegant way to do this.

that's where the provider gets it, in this case I'd guess

Yeah, it seems you are right. It gets it from the environment variables, but since we don't need a subscription environment, we lose the ability to retrieve it using the client config.
