I have a basic question… do we have variables / global variables in Application Studio? I don’t mean DataView (because in data view you can have multiple rows and columns). I would like to have variable which I can ‘name’, ‘get’ and ‘set’ from any event.

Hi @phoenix , search for TransView. You can add whatever variables are needed [image] Application Studio Get Selected Value from Grid Kinetic ERP So, I got this working to what I think is your intention, but you’ll have to let me know. Here’s the working iteration: [SumC…

As @tkoch said, TransView can be used. It’s a runtime view that allows you to add columns at any time for use. I’ve seen Epicor use TransView like that as well. That being said, there’s a global variable widget, but I’ve never used it nor felt the need since TransView works just fine.

[image] hmwillett: there’s a global variable widget So simple :). Thanks. Because TransView is heavily used by Kinetic itself I have concerns that at some point my data can be changed/cleared. BTW I just give a try to store API key in global variable. Key is there but when I put %variableNa…

Interestingly, despite it being marked as required, the API key is not required in App Studio since it’s internal. [image] phoenix: %variableName% is not a valid API key. You should check the payload of the network call using dev tools. That should show you what it’s trying to send.

Interestingly when I created a new application, TransView was not there. I was trying to control a state of a button with TransView and it caused a lot of issues (like preventing saving) until I got rid of all events and rules that tried to use it.

[image] tpynepeak: when I created a new application, TransView was not there. It never will be (unless they add that in the future). You need to create the dataview yourself if it’s your own app.

Excellent. I did so and thought I was doing it wrong. Thank you. Now if I could get that bind to non existent column working I be satisfied for a minute or so as I embark on a SpaceX style of iteration :slight_smile:

Application Studio - is there such thing like Variables / Global Variables?
