Github workflow allow all write and read operations

Question

How do I allow all read and write operations in my github workflow job?

I've tried setting:

    permissions: all
    permissions: write-all|read-all
    permissions: {write-all, read-all}
    permissions: |
        write-all
        read-all

and many more!

I've looked into the docs but nothing more than the oprtions for read all OR write all were shown.. but no option to enable both.

See this;

For each of the available scopes, shown in the table below, you can assign one of the permissions: read, write, or none. If you specify the access for any of these scopes, all of those that are not specified are set to none.

E.g. for contents scope, on either the whole workflow, or for a specific job;

permissions:
  contents: write

Write permissions grant read permissions too, so if you are wanting to using the write-all and read-all, you only need to say, or;

You can use the following syntax to define one of read-all or write-all access for all of the available scopes:

permissions: read-all

permissions: write-all

So you want;

permissions: write-all
