In-Depth Information
Each variable must have a unique name. If you add the same variable more
than once in the same template, Confluence will provide both placeholders
with the same value. This is useful when you need the same information in
more than one position.
To insert a variable into a template, perform the following steps:
1.
Place your cursor at the location you want to insert a variable
2.
Select
Template
from the editor toolbar.
3.
Select an existing variable or click on
New Variable
.
4.
Enter the variable name.
5.
Press
Enter
. This will create a single-line text input field.
6.
To change the variable type, click on the placeholder. The property
panel will appear where you can choose different types. See the next
table for a description of those types.
