Variables Node

The Variables node allows you to define, store, and reuse values throughout your Workflow. It works like a temporary memory where you can save data from one step and use it later in another.

🛠️ How It Works

• You map a variable name (e.g., productSKU, userEmail, city).

• You assign a value to that variable. The value can come from:

  • Static text (you write it directly).

  • A reference to data produced by another node in the Workflow.

  • AI-generated content (if you enable Use AI).

• Once saved, the variable can be used in any following node.

⚙️ Configuration Options

• Mapping name → the variable’s key (e.g., customerName).

• Value →

  • Literal value (e.g., "São Paulo").

  • Workflow reference (e.g., @workflow.request.userInput).

  • AI-generated (if you select Use AI).

• Multiple variables → you can add as many mappings as needed.

📌 Example Use Cases

• Dynamic API Calls Save the user’s city into a variable city and use it in an HTTP Request node to fetch the weather: GET /weather?city=@workflow.variables.city

• Storing User Input Capture name and email once, then reuse them across different steps (e.g., CRM API, confirmation message).

• AI Processing Enable Use AI to automatically transform or enrich the data before saving it (e.g., normalizing product names).

⚡ Tip: Variables make your Workflow modular and reusable, avoiding repeated inputs and allowing complex logic.
