Variable

[ Up: Operation Reference ]

---

The Variable operation creates a new data object of a user-specified type, allows the user to edit it via its input, and passes it out verbatim via its output. The operation is very useful when one data object needs to be passed to multiple other operations on a workflow. To change the Variable's data type, open the properties dialog and navigate to the "Data" tab.
