Declare Runtime Variables

When a recipe variation runs, any declared runtime variable values are defined and redefined as they are encountered during recipe processing.

There are two types of runtime variables. Runtime variables are specific to use in container nodes and in data sources and sinks.

For details and examples on how to declare these variables, see the following:

• Built-in Runtime Variables for use in data sources and data sinks.
• Runtime Output Variables for use in container nodes.

Warning

System variable names are reserved: do not use the names reserved for Automation system variables to define your custom variables, as this can create conflicts and errors in recipes.
