Collection variables in slots

At a glance

Is it possible to use a collection’s variables in the slots contained within that collection? I have several repeating elements within a single collection, and I’d like to link them. However, I can’t find a way to pull data from the collection for these elements.

Hi yes you should be able to access variables defined outside the slot within the slot https://youtu.be/MWTpgOmv6N0

I have access to global variables, but I don’t see the collection variables—meaning the data retrieved in that specific instance.

Ah I see. @Bogdan should this be supported? Slots within Collections dont have access to any vars outside the Slot

This will be possible with components. Slot have access only to global variables.

Ah gotcha. I forgot this was the case

Though it is possible to access css variables from these slots
