For one, the `config.json` is **NOT** the file to be used to configure Vaultwarden. All should be done via either the the docker env’s like you are trying. `-e ADMIN_TOKEN="my-token"` should work just fine. If not, show use what error message you get. ---

Hey [Denq](https://vaultwarden.discourse.group/u/Denq), have you successfully ran your docker container with env variable ADMIN\_TOKEN?
