Use a variable value: type, copy, or paste in RunMacro

What it does

The Use Variable command outputs a variable value your way: type it key by key, copy to clipboard, or paste (Ctrl+V) into the focused field.

When to use it

  • Fill a variable value into a field by typing.
  • Put a variable into the clipboard for use elsewhere.
  • Quickly paste a variable value into a form.

Configuration steps

  1. Click the target field (if typing/pasting).
  2. Add a Variables › Use Variable command and choose the variable.
  3. Choose the action: Type / Copy to clipboard / Paste. Save.

Every option explained

Variable

The variable to read. If missing, an empty value is used.

Action (Type / Copy / Paste)

Type types into the field; Copy puts it in the clipboard; Paste pastes directly.

Real example

Example: type a stored email into a form

  1. You already have an email variable.
  2. Click the email field, add Use Variable email, action Type.
  3. RunMacro types the email into the field.

Tips & common mistakes

You can also embed a variable directly in Type Text via {var_name} — Use Variable is handy when you want to choose the output method.
