Task Purpose
The newVariable task creates a new job variable. The result is similar to promoting the outgoing variable of an automatic task to a job variable. You can create a new boolean, number, string, object, or array variables.
Properties
| Property | Description |
|---|---|
| New Variable Name | Type a name for the new variable. Job Variable names must adhere to IAP Naming Conventions. The naming rules are found here. |
| Variable Source | Specify where to find the value of the new variable (a job variable, a static value, or an earlier task). Select the appropriate reference task then either select the reference variable or type a new description for a static reference. |
| Value | If value location is static, the Value field becomes a text editor; type the new value. Otherwise the Value field becomes a dropdown list; select an existing job or task variable. |
Example
