Work with Variables
Create and update variables on the canvas or in a robot action.
To learn more about variables and other robot resources, see Alternatives to Hard Coding Data.
Create a Variable
A variable holds data temporarily for a robot so that you can use the data somewhere else. You can add a variable on the canvas or in a robot action.
If you plan to add actions using the recorder, consider creating the
variables that you need on the canvas, before you start building the robot. That way,
you won't have to pause the recorder to create the variables.
Update a Variable
You can update a variable at any time from the canvas, without opening an action that uses the variable.
Before updating a variable, check where it's used: See Where a Variable Is Used.
