+# Set environment variables for all steps in a GitHub Action
+
+From [this example](https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/github-actions/blob/20c294aabd5331f9f7b8a26e6075d41c31ce5e0d/example-workflows/cloud-run/.github/workflows/cloud-run.yml) I learned that you can set environment variables such that they will be available in ALL jobs once at the top of a workflow:
+
+```yaml
+name: Build and Deploy to Cloud Run
+
+on:
+  push:
+    branches:
+    - master
+
+env:
+  PROJECT_ID: ${{ secrets.RUN_PROJECT }}
+  RUN_REGION: us-central1
+  SERVICE_NAME: helloworld-nodejs
+```
