Environment variable refresh by editing bashrc not working

In VS Code, environment variables can be edited by profile or rc files, such as .bash_profile or .bashrc in integrated terminal.

However, when I tried to run a Jupyter notebook file on ssh-remote server, the edited environment variables were not reflected to the .ipynb file even though I ran source ~/.bashrc command, restarted VScode, and deleted my ssh session.

What is the method to refresh shell of the remote server while running VS Code?

Try to restart the remote server you are connecting to, by using the Kill VS Code Server On Host... command from the command palette (CTRL+SHIFT+P), selecting the host you experience the problem with, then closing and restarting VS Code.

I had the same problem today, and this worked for me. The VS Code server does not seem to update the environment variables e.g. from .bashrc dynamically.
