Assigning values to variables using Script mode

Learn how to assign values to variables using the Script development view.

About this task

Variables might receive default values when created, by assignment, or by other commands during script runtime. This procedure describes how to assign values to variables.

Before you begin

The variable must be created before. See how to create variables in Creating variables using Script mode.

Procedure

To assign values to variables in your script, you need to use either the Set Variable (setVar) or Set Variables (setVars) commands.

What to do next

You can see default values in the --value input parameter. During the script runtime, you can debug your script and see the values in the variables in the Global variables window. For more information about debugging scripts, see Debugging scripts.
