Global variables

At a glance

Good afternoon, where to add Data Variables to make them available on all pages?
I tried to add them to “slots”, but then they are only available locally in the slot.

I'll tell you right away what I need them for: for authorization by API (GraphQl), for database query variables, etc....

I'm working on global variables right now 😉

Stay tuned

current workaround is to copy those variables in the pages or slots where they are needed, but this is a terrible workaround

here the issue to follow https://github.com/orgs/webstudio-is/projects/11/views/1?pane=issue&itemId=81261933&issue=webstudio-is%7Cwebstudio%7C4166

By the way, copying also does not work, or rather it is impossible to insert data in the format in which the variable is copied.
OOleg Isonen
you mean when you copy an instance with data variables, data variables don't get copied over?
DDivisor
In any case, copying is not the way to go since there could be hundreds of pages 🙂

I meant copy instance, not page

You can copy it, but you can't paste it somewhere. ))

You can paste it into "URL" field
BBogdan
The format is called cURL

Yeah, got it, thanks. Except it's not a solution if there are more than 2 pages.😅
BBogdan
Will be fixed soon
DDivisor
If possible, make global variables global at all, so that they are available for both pages and slots. Thanks!
BBogdan
This is the idea

I am very much looking forward to this update. As it turned out, when layout a multi-lingual site - just a necessary chip.
