The Set Variable block is basically used to set a variable or multiple variables and assign static or dynamic values to these variables.

Dashboard Object Overlay

Using workflow, you can overlay a dashboard object, that is, display the object as a central pop-up, on clicking an action button on the dashboard.

In the workflow, set the following variables and values in the Set Variable block:

Variable :  action; Value :  overlay-object

Variable :  shortcode; Value : shortcode of the object you want to overlay

You can also display the object as a slide, for this, add a variable appearance and enter the value as slide.

HTML Card Overlay

You can also overlay an HTML card using the Set Variable block. For this, add a variable “content” and give the HTML code for the card as the value.

To display the card as a slide, add a variable appearance and enter the value as slide.

Multiple Object Reload

Multiple dashboard objects can be reloaded on triggering a workflow by giving multiple shortcodes in the Set Variable block. Give the Variable name as “shortcode” and enter the shortcodes of the dashboard objects, separated by commas, in the field Value.
