Variables are needed to record, receive and store data received from users or external systems. For example, you can record user responses through User Input and upload them to Google Sheets. To create a variable, click on the "Create" button

Enter the name of the variable, be sure to select the correct type of variable, because, for example, if you later need to perform arithmetic operations with variables, and you have chosen the type “String” instead of “Number”, you will not be able to do this. Or you have chosen the variable type “Number”, and write text into it. In this case, the variable will not be updated. We also recommend adding descriptions to variables.

Also pay attention to the variable from the type “Value from the list“. It will only accept the values you specify.

All created variables will be displayed as a list. Here you can see the name of the variable, description, number of times it was used, type, as well as the time of the last update, rename and delete the variable.

Global variables - have the same value for all users in the project. It is convenient to write into this variable, for example, an API key, a token, a link. By editing the value of a variable, it will automatically change for all users.

 

You can manage global variables using the API: Definitions API - en
