Manage Custom Variables

The Manage Custom Variables feature allows administrators to create, view, and delete team-specific custom variables. These variables can be used throughout the system for automation, rules, or device-level configurations.

Accessing Custom Variables​

  1. Log into the console and navigate to Management > Devices.

  2. Select your team.

  3. Go to Actions > Manage Custom Variables.

    This opens the custom variables management page, where all existing variables are listed in a table.

The Manage Custom Variables page displays:

  • A table of all existing custom variables
  • Search, sort, and pagination controls
  • Row-level and bulk actions (such as Delete)
  • A button to create new variables (only if permitted)

Each variable shows:

VariableThe actual variable key used in rules and automation

Protected variables cannot be selected or deleted.
