return a + " " + b;

var result = fn("hello", "world");

RoboTaskApp.AddUserVariable(RoboTaskApp.ExpandText(VariableNameResult, result);


could help format the synthase
tks

The script is

Code: Select all

function myfn(a, b)
  {
  return a + " " + b;
  }

VariableNameResult = "ResVar";
result = myfn("hello", "world");

RoboTaskApp().SetUserVariable(VariableNameResult, result);

I'd like to return to this post so I don't have to open another one, in this variable assignment context
in this context the variable is always applying globally, I'd like it to be only within the task
I've already declared it at the beginning of the task with the same name as the variable assigned in the function, the function applies globally, this interferes with another task with the same variable name

[Oleg]

Try to use variable name like this: "local@ResVar"
Also you can create local variable with necessary name

Look at my example below. I have global variable MyVar. By the script set value to local variable MyVar

Code: Select all
