Consider that a call to the variable
function will fail if the variable is unknown and no default value is specified.
Example:

JSON | "\"variable( \\\"my_var\\\", job=my_job )\"" |
Comment | The value of the variable my_var is returned as available with the job my_job in a workflow. If the variable is unknown then the function fails. |
