Centralize reusable values
Keep URLs, thresholds, labels, and settings organized outside individual steps.
Variables
Manage reusable workflow values in one place
Store configuration, thresholds, template text, API values, and dynamic data once, then reuse them across workflows without editing every step.
Core Capabilities
What this feature helps your team do
Handle sensitive values carefully
Use variables for credentials and tokens that should not be scattered through workflows.
Support structured data
Use strings, numbers, booleans, and JSON-style values for different workflow needs.
Reusable configuration
Change workflow behavior without rebuilding every step
Variables make workflows easier to maintain because frequently changed values live in one managed place.
- Global and workflow-level values
- Sensitive value handling
- JSON configuration objects
- Fast updates across workflows
How It Works
A practical path from setup to production
Create a variable
Define the name, type, scope, and value.
Use it in steps
Insert variables into actions, code, conditions, and messages.
Update centrally
Change the variable once when a value changes.
Keep workflows cleaner
Avoid hard-coded values inside every step.
Common Use Cases
Where teams use Variables
API keys and tokens
Environment URLs
Approval thresholds
Reusable message templates
Variables questions
Clear answers about how this capability fits into real workflow automation.
Store values that are reused, sensitive, environment-specific, or likely to change over time.
Yes. Variables can support reusable configuration so teams avoid duplicating the same value across many workflows.
Yes. Variables can support simple values and structured configuration such as JSON-style objects.
Hard-coded values are harder to update and audit. Variables keep configuration easier to maintain.
