Variables

Variables in Klyntos let you pass information between workflow blocks, persist secrets, and expose configuration to collaborators. They are essential for keeping workflows reusable while avoiding hard-coded values.

Variable options​

  • Workflow variables – Scoped to a single workflow run and ideal for passing data between blocks.
  • Environment variables – Shared across a workspace for credentials, URLs, and other secrets that must stay consistent.

Best practices​

  • Prefer environment variables for credentials and tokens so you can rotate them without touching workflows.
  • Use descriptive names and document how each variable is consumed in your blocks.
  • Remove unused variables to keep the workspace tidy and avoid leaking stale values into new runs.
  • Triggers – Inject data into workflows when they start.
  • Blocks – Reference variables directly inside block configuration fields.
