I have a shell script that **exports** values of variables when executed. The same values will be used in another script.  

How to run this script(**test.sh**) in cron.

```
#!/bin/sh
export I="10"
echo $I

```

I will be using root access for cron.
I tried this command : 

```
*/5 * * * * /home/ubuntu/backup/.test.sh

```

I checked with environment variables, nothing is updated.
