  height: 0,
  width: '100%'
}}>
    <iframe src={src} title={title} frameBorder="0" loading="lazy" allow="clipboard-write" allowFullScreen style={{
  position: 'absolute',
  top: 0,

  width: '100%',
  height: '100%',

}} />
  </div>;

### Bulk Upload Environment Variables

**To bulk upload variables:**

1. From any page in the Paradime application, click **Settings**
2. Navigate to **Workspaces > Environment Variables**
3. In the Code IDE section, click **Bulk Upload**
4. Drag and drop your CSV file or click to select a file
5. Review and confirm the upload

**Preparing your CSV file**

The CSV file must have a header row with the columns "Key" and "Value". The header row should avoid containing any punctuation (apart from the commas separating each column) or the importer may not work correctly.

<Warning>
  The "Key" and "Value" columns should NOT have spaces. Your CSV file should look like this:
</Warning>

**Example CSV format:**

| Key                        | Value                 |
| -------------------------- | --------------------- |
| GOOGLE\_SHEETS\_CLIENT\_ID | app.googlecontent.com |
| JIRA\_CLIENT\_ID           | e1Z5mthO8zAQqM9z8     |
| DEV\_SCHEMA\_PREFIX        | dev\_                 |
