Use Values to name data that later steps save, compare, or insert into text and URLs. It is a section above Steps in Add New Automation / Edit Automation, not an Add Step; each row has a name and an optional starter.
Names slug to letters, digits, and underscore, and must start with a letter. Save value and If / Wait Matches Saved pick from this list.
The starter seeds the live map only when that key is missing. Restart keeps a captured value. The live map persists across links, cycles, Pause/Resume, and Restart until you Remove the automation or start a new one.
How to use it
- Click Add under Values. Enter a name. Optional starter text.
- Add a Save value step and pick that name.
