Please, show me how to continue.

Hi @KimSa,

Apologies for the confusion, the video you’re following is over a year old and shows an older version of the UI.

To add Onboarding Variables, head to the Startup Settings in your Agent:

Thank you for your reply.

I still don’t know how to do. Please, guide me. I guess that the key can be {{global.my_product[0]}}. But I don’t know what I should provide for the Value.

Help, please.

Hi @KimSa,

Just to clarify, the 6:35 timestamp in the video you shared is covering Onboarding Variables, not Global Variables.

Here’s the difference:

• Onboarding Variables are User Inputs collected once when the end user launches the Agent for the first time, and they persist across runs
  Example: collecting a user’s first name so the Agent always addresses them by name

• Global Variables are used to save generated data that persists across runs
  Example: Agent scrapes a website on Tuesday and saves the details to a Global Variable. When it scrapes the site again on Wednesday, it can compare the two versions to check for updates

To find the Onboarding Variables shown in the video, follow these steps:

1. Click on the Agent’s name
   

   

2. Click on Startup settings
   

   

3. Click the + icon to add User Inputs to the Onboarding Variables list
   

   

Hope this helps!

Thank you very much
