Now we will see solution for issue: How to set env variable in Jupyter notebook

Answer

To set an env variable in a jupyter notebook, just use a % magic commands, either %env or %set_env, e.g., %env MY_VAR=MY_VALUE or %env MY_VAR MY_VALUE. (Use %env by itself to print out current environmental variables.)
