sg.PostProcessQuality=0/1/2/3
sg.TextureQuality=0/1/2/3
sg.EffectsQuality=0/1/2/3
sg.FoliageQuality=0/1/2/3

Each setting can be individually chosen as 0, 1, 2, or 3. 0 is the lowest quality while 3 is the highest.

Permanent INI changes

Permanent INI changes can be made using Drogean's Custom INI kit.
Instructions included.
Download Link

This lets you create a mod for the game that reads a custom engine .ini file you can put any console/config tweak into and have it read by the game in just a few clicks. Outside of using the UE4 console enabler and inputting your commands on every startup, this is the only way to make them permanent.[5]
