Hi Arrigo,

it seems to me that the config is only present in the server for security reasons. You want to protect your api key from public access. So I would write an endpoint, and make some configurations public. In the component you can then get your configuration via the endpoint.

src/plugins/yourPluginName/server/controllers/my-controller.ts

export default ({ strapi }: { strapi: Strapi }) => ({
  async getColorFormConfig() {
    return strapi.plugin(pluginName).config("color", "#000");
  },

Then you need to register the controller here: src/plugins/yourPluginName/server/controllers/index.ts

import myController from './my-controller';

export default {
  myController,
};

You will also need a route.

export default [
  {
    method: "GET",
    path: "/",
    handler: "myController.getColorFormConfig",
    config: {
      policies: [],
      auth: false,
    },
  }
];

Now you can fetch the color setting from your component.
http://localhost:1337/yourPluginName
