Template variables

Most step fields accept template references written as {{ something }}. At run time Routario replaces them with real values from the flow. Alongside the outputs of earlier steps, a few always-available namespaces exist. The value picker in the editor links here for each of them.

loop.* — the current item in a Foreach

Available only inside a Foreach step.

• loop.item — the current item being processed
• loop.index — its position, starting at 1
• loop.index0 — its position, starting at 0
• loop.total — how many items there are
• loop.first / loop.last — booleans for the first / last pass

user.* — the person who ran the flow

The signed-in human who triggered the run (or whose behalf it ran on).

• user.firstName, user.lastName
• user.email — handy as a to: on Send email
• user.phone, user.role, user.locale

now.* — the current moment

• now.date — today’s date
• now.time — the current time
• now.timestamp — a full ISO timestamp

workspace.* — about the workspace

• workspace.name — the workspace / organisation name
