+# Skipping a GitHub Actions step without failing
+
+I wanted to have a GitHub Action step run that might fail, but if it failed the rest of the steps should still execute and the overall run should be treated as a success.
+
+`continue-on-error: true` does exactly that:
+
+```yaml
+    - name: Task 1
+      run: task1
+      continue-on-error: true
+    - name: Task 2
+      run: task2
+```
