The Variables tab

The variables used in the current orchestration are listed in the Variables tab.

Variables are used in the context of a specific orchestration to bind data sources to an orchestration, and to pass (or operate on) data values created as the result of orchestration processing. An orchestration's variables are typically initialized by the parameters from the specific activities that make up the orchestration.

Variables can store primitive data, such as a string or integer value, or can represent an entire XML Schema or a fragment of an XML Schema. In Studio, you can automatically create variables for the orchestration using the Mapping Editor's Copy button. In the Variables tab of Studio, you can create a variable based on a fragment of an XML Schema, by dragging a fragment (or sub-node) of an XML Schema from the Schema of pane, into the Variables pane.
