Using Variables in Release Plans

ARP supports the use of variables for Release Plans.

Variables can be referenced in the input of Release Phases and Release Tasks and help you save time and ensure consistency.

To Define Variables

1. Open the Release Plan.
2. Select the Variables tab.
3. Click Add Row.
4. Enter a name for the variable.

   Alphanumeric characters are allowed. Variable names cannot start with a number.

5. Define the value. Values can be a single string or a string concatenation. For example:

   Name	Value	Evaluation
   package_name	pck-{build_number}.{build_version}	pck_55.v12
   recipient_title	Sir/Madam	Sir/Madam
   build_number	55	55
   build_version	V12	V12

   Variables used in expressions are evaluated at runtime when a Task is started.

Variables can be modified via REST API.
