Variable Methods

Situate currently supports five distinct types of variable:

• JS Expressions contain Javascript constructs such as strings, objects or executable Javascript expressions to be evaluated and used in tasks.
• User Prompts contain Javascript values collected at runtime from the user through configurable prompts and dialogs.
• Parameter variables receive values passed from external callers such as MCP tools, parent workflows, or API calls. This method is used exclusively with ActionTriggers.
• Date Builder expressions contain dynamic references to specific days of the week, month or year relative to the workflow at runtime.
• Configuration Item variables allow workflows to access data within CI through the CMDB.
