You can add .erb extention to your .sass file and then add your variables just like in regular .erb file:

<%= APP_CONFIG[:yourkey] %>

Be aware when doing this that Sass files are by default only compiled once and then served statically. – montrealmike May 12 '15 at 17:29
Yes...so it doesn't make sense to have a dynamic object accessible in a SASS/CSS file like you would in an html template. – Hari Honor Jan 30 '20 at 10:43
