Use the Constant repository to store environment variables, such as URLs, for different environments, such as production or test environment.

Together with removal of project name from the Lookup Password step, this approach makes the Robot an immutable artifact, meaning that you can develop, test, and run Robots without modifications. The value of the constant is stored in the environment, ensuring consistency across environments.

In Management Console

In Repository, it is now possible to add constants containing some common values that can be shared between Robots and environments.

Use the Constants page to view, add, edit, and delete constants. Constants are stored unencrypted and should only be used for non-sensitive information.

New endpoints facilitating Constant store operations are added to the Management Console REST API.

In Design Studio

Use $executionInfo.constants in the Expression editor in Robots to access shared constants in Management Console. The Robot must be executed to create the execution object. In Design Studio, to execute a robot that uses shared constants, place your robot in the shared project on the Management Console that stores these constants. In the Expressions Editor, constants are always represented as JSON strings. Use conversion functions to convert JSON strings to other values. Use JSON steps to work further with the values.
