How to Access the Variable Helper

In the WS Form layout editor, any settings that support variables will have a # (hash) icon above them. Click the hash icon to access the Variable Helper.

Searching Variables

At the top of the Variables Helper is a search field.

Examples of keyword searches you can perform are:

Variable Groups

The variable groups are shown as clickable tabs at the top of the Variables Helper. Click on a group tab to view the variables in that group. The #field group contains all of the variables available in your form organized by tab, section and field.

Inserting Variables

By clicking a variable name, it will insert it into the setting you used to open the Variables Helper. You can click on any other setting in the sidebar to change which field a variable will be inserted into. You can move the cursor to anywhere in a setting and then click a variable name to insert it at that position.

Variables can be inserted into form, tab, section and field settings, as well as conditional logic and action settings.

You can also copy variables by clicking the copy icon.

Usage Tags

Alongside each variable are usage tags. These indicate where a variable can be used in WS Form.
