# setupCommonPipelineEnvironment
## Description
Initializes the [`commonPipelineEnvironment`](commonPipelineEnvironment.md), which is used throughout the complete pipeline.
!!! tip
This step needs to run at the beginning of a pipeline right after the SCM checkout.
Then subsequent pipeline steps consume the information from `commonPipelineEnvironment`; it does not need to be passed to pipeline steps explicitly.
## Prerequisites
* A **configuration file** with properties (default location: `.pipeline/config.properties`). The property values are used as default values in many pipeline steps.
## Parameters
| parameter | mandatory | default | possible values |
| ------------ |-----------|-------------------------------|-----------------|
| `script` | yes | - | |
| `configFile` | no | `.pipeline/config.properties` | |
* `script` - The reference to the pipeline script (Jenkinsfile). Normally `this` needs to be provided.
* `configFile` - Property file defining project specific settings.
## Return value
none
## Side effects
none
## Exceptions
none
## Example
```groovy
setupCommonPipelineEnvironment script: this
```
