Variables are an easy way of displaying ‘variable’ information that is unique to each workflow run.
Every workflow contains a default set of variables called global variables, along with variables that represent any form fields you have added to that specific workflow.
Global variables are automatically generated when a workflow is created and are consistent across all workflows.
Users: In order to create or edit workflows, you must be an Administrator or a Member who has been given ‘edit’ access by your Administrator.
You can find a list of the global variables below.
- Workflow run creator (email) – {{run.created_by.email}}
- Workflow run creator (name) – {{run.created_by.name}}
- Workflow run created date – {{run.created_date}}
- Workflow run due date – {{run.due_date.full}}
- Workflow run name – {{run.name}}
- Workflow run URL – {{run.url}}
- Current date – {{current_date.full}}
- Current day of the month – {{current_date.day}}
- Current month – {{current_date.month}}
- Current user’s email – {{current_user.email}}
- Current user’s name – {{current_user.name}}
- Current year – {{current_date.year}}
- Organization name – {{organization.name}}
- Task due date – {{task.due_date.full}}
- Task name – {{task.name}}
- Task URL – {{task.url}}
- Workflow name – {{workflow.name}}
- Workflow URL – {{workflow.url}}
