+## Using ENV variables
+All options in the config file (listed below) can be overriden using ENV variables using the syntax:
+
+    GF_<SectionName>_<KeyName>
+
+Where the section name is the text within the brackets. Everything should be upper case.
+
+Example, given this config setting:
+
+    [security]
+    admin_user = admin
+
+Then you can override that using:
+
+    export GF_SECURITY_ADMIN_USER=true
