    • Contextual variables are out-of-the-box variables delivered by ServiceNow that enable you to use the context of a node to define a variable.

    Important :
    DevOps Config is now deprecated and no longer supported or available for new activation.
    For example: CollectionA has defined these variables:
    • "environment": "(#DEPLOYABLE.ENVIRONMENT_TYPE#)"
    • "deployable": "(#DEPLOYABLE.NAME#)"

    When you add the collection to a deployable, these variables are set to the values defined in the context, which would be the environment type and name of the deployable for CollectionA.

    The available out-of-the-box contextual variables are:
