Variables Workflow

To use variables in your topics and publications, follow this process:

  1. Create a Variable Set - This is a collection of variables and the possible values that they can contain.

    • In the variable set, add variables for each type of information that needs to change in different scenarios.

    • Create variants for the variables. A variant is a collection of values that will be inserted into the variables when you publish. For example, if you have a product name variable, you could have a variant where the product name is "ACME 100X" and you could have another variant where the product name is "ACME 200X". Think of each variant as the values that will be used in one particular scenario.

    You can skip this step if you already have suitable variable sets available in Paligo.

  2. Insert a Variable into your topics where appropriate.

  3. Preview Variables to check that they are providing the correct information.

  4. About Publishing your conten and choose the variants that Paligo should use.

Note

The process is different for Dynamic Text Variables.
