I cannot access the Scenario inputs data from the Tools -> Set Variable module

[brian_doherty]

Hi,

I defined Scenario inputs as follows

sample_input with a value of “Brian”

I added a Tools → Set Variable module. When I click into Variable value I am not able to wire it up to the Scenario inputs “sample_input”.

I tried adding {{ sample_input }} but when I run the scenario the variable value resolves as empty.

Anyone know how to access the scenario inputs data?

Thanks!
Brian

Try saving your scenario, and refresh the scenario editor web page.

Also, the scenario input will be found in the last tab:

and will be in this format:

{{ var.input.sample_input }}

Hope this helps! Let me know if there are any further questions or issues.

Hi,

I already tried saving and refreshing but it did not work. Just now I logged out and back in again and it’s still the same.

But when I click the { } I do see my scenario inputs I selected it and it works as expected.

I guess I got confused because I was used of using other modules and when I click in to set some values, it automatically pops up a dialog showing the other module outputs which can be mapped.

Thanks for the quick reply, good to know about the { } way of seeing variables.

Hezky den!
Brian
