What is your goal?
When I create a scenerio I cant use values from previous module in next module unless I run the scenario. Is this how its supposed to be? Or am i making a rookie mistake?
What is the problem?
Example
I am pulling data from last row of google sheets
I want to use this data to be sent to GPT in a prompt.
But I wont be able to access the variables of data from sheets unless I run scenario once.
Yes, you are not supposed to run the modules manually after the initial setup is done.
Hey @Nikhil_Parachure , that’s a common occurence that happens whenever you try to run a single module in your scenario without having any data in the previous module. That’s not exactly a mistake, it’s just a default thing that happens in that scenario. it’s mainly for testing.
Just to add one more detail: this happens because Make only exposes module outputs after it receives real data. Until a module runs, there’s no data structure for the next module to reference.
A common workaround while building is to run only the previous module (right-click → Run this module) to generate sample output, instead of running the full scenario.
After that, the variables stay available for mapping.
