Variables allow you to save a piece of data at one point in the flow and use it later, pass data through conditions and loops, or accumulate values (like a running total) across loop iterations.<\/p>\n<h2>Variable Types<\/h2>\n<p>Zoho Flow supports string, number, boolean, and JSON variables. Variables are initialised with a value (from the trigger data, a literal value, or a calculation) and can be updated by subsequent steps in the flow.<\/p>\n<h2>Common Variable Uses<\/h2>\n<p>Set a variable to track a counter (increment it in each loop iteration to count processed records). Store a calculated value (total invoice amount) from one action step for use in a later step. Accumulate error messages across loop iterations into a single string for a notification email.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A named storage container in Zoho Flow that holds a value during flow execution, used to carry data between steps or accumulate values across loop iterations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","meta":{"seo_title":"Variable (Flow) | Zoho Glossary | Aaxonix","seo_description":"A named storage container in Zoho Flow that holds a value during flow execution, used to carry data between steps or accumulate values across loop iteratio","seo_keyword":"variable zoho flow","seo_faqs":"","term_type":"","glossary_related":"","glossary_links":""},"glossary_category":[1257],"class_list":["post-5099","glossary","type-glossary","status-publish","hentry","glossary_category-zoho-flow"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/aaxonix.com\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/glossary\/5099","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/aaxonix.com\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/glossary"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/aaxonix.com\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/glossary"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/aaxonix.com\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5099"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"glossary_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aaxonix.com\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/glossary_category?post=5099"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
