Global variables are static strings defined by an administrator. Changes made to the values of these variables are instantly reflected wherever they are used in TechSmith Relay.
Create and use a global variable when you have a value that is used across multiple profiles and needs to change at some point.
Example Uses
-
Create a variable for Semester and add it to a file system publish destination path, such as:
\\media.company.com\presentations\{g:Semester}You can use this publish destination for multiple profiles. When the semester is over, change the value on the Profiles > Variables > Global Variables tab and all profiles are automatically adjusted to reflect the change.
-
Create a variable for the person to contact if a presenter needs assistance with editing a TREC file.
Use the variable in the email notification to the presenter.
When the responsibility to help presenters passes to a new person, you can easily change the variable value on the Profiles > Variables > Global Variables tab.
