How do you use Variables?

Kseniia Kurganskaia

Hello Community,

I’m Kseniia Kurganskaia, a UX designer on Tridion Docs.

As you may know, we're planning to move more features from client tools to the web, and one of the things we're looking into is using Variables in Draft Space.

Before we start designing a solution, we want to understand how our customers use variables in their documentation. Please vote in the two polls below:

 Would you please share in the comments if you sometimes use other types of variables?
We would really appreciate any feedback you can provide. Thank you!



Adjusted expiration date on polls.

  • We use variables primarily for things like product names and other short strings that occur in broadly shared content on the one hand, and have a different value in different contexts on the other hand.

    Apart from short strings, we also have a topic link as a variable, to point to each product's specific instance of a certain topic.

    Although everyone's free to make variables, most are centrally managed, exactly because they are typically cross-product items.
