Smart Parameter special variable reference

Special variables are for use with smart parameters. If an action supports smart parameters, it is specified in the action help. Smart parameters are very powerful specifications for action parameters that allow access of data to and from other DCO objects and perform special pre-defined operations in one step.

Smart parameters can be used to dynamically obtain or create action input parameters at runtime. For example, an action could be provided the value of a field after recognition, or a parameter could pull the value from a DCO variable that was set by a previous action, or a smart parameter could transform to the current date, the current time, the current job ID, the current operator ID, the path to the current batch that is running, and more. Smart parameter syntax can also be used to build expressions at runtime that concatenate dynamic data and static data at runtime. Smart parameters are a flexible way to provide a wide range of input to any action that supports smart parameters.

Restriction:

Smart parameters do not work with all actions. Check the action help Action help icon in Datacap Studio for compatibility information.
