Create a Workflow Variable

Variables are used to store data within a Workflow. Before you can use one, it must first be instantiated within the Workflow. Variables can only be used within the Workflow it was created in, and only exist in Runtime while the Workflow is running.

To create a variable:

  1. Open or create your Workflow.
  2. Select the Start block.
  3. In the Properties grid, click the ⊕ symbol and expand the Variables list.
  4. Expand the newly added variable and fill in the below information:
    • Initial Value — The value to be contained in the variable when the Workflow initially begins execution. This can be any string value.
    • Name — The name which shall be used to reference the variable elsewhere in the Workflow.
  5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 until you have all the desired variables added.

You can now reference these variables within other Workflow blocks from the Logic Editor.
