• The values of environment variables can be specified from
  • Constant values using the "string" data type
  • JS7 - Order Variables
  • Node Arguments
• Environment variables are limited in scope to the current job. Therefore modifications to environment variables by a job script are not effective beyond the scope of current job execution.
• Values for environment variables use the data type "string". Should values from assigned variables use a different data type then the value is converted to "string".

JVM Jobs

Assignment of Job Arguments

...

• The purpose of Job Arguments is to parameterize optional startup code of a JVM job that is run on initialization of the job, i.e. before the job will be executed for orders later on.
• Constant values only can be assigned.

...

• Constant string values
  • This assignment type is e.g. used with Variable Declarations for workflows and with Node Arguments
  • Example for string value:
    • GUI input: "value 1"
    • JSON format: "var1": "\"value 1\""
  • Example for an empty string value:
    • GUI input: ""
    • JSON format: "var1": "\"\""
•  ExpressionsExpressions
  • This assignment type is used with Environment Variables, Job Arguments and Initialization Arguments
  • Example:
    • GUI input: $someVariable
    • JSON format: "var1": "$someVariable"

...

• Use with single quotes

  Input	'some value'
  Output	some value
  JSON	"var": "'some value'"

  
  
  

• Use with double quotes

  Input	"some value"
  Output	some value
  JSON	"var": "\"some value\""

  
  For assignment of empty string values double quotes have to be used:

  Input	""
  Output
  JSON	"var": "\"\""

  
  
  

• Use with double quoted values

  Input	"some \"quoted\" value"
  Output	some "quoted" value
  JSON	"var": "\"some \\\"quoted\\\" value\""

  
  
  

• Use with double quoted and single quoted values

  Input	"some 'quoted' value"
  Output	some 'quoted' value
  JSON	"var": "\"some 'quoted' value\""

  
  
  

• Use with $ character from single quoted values

  Input	'some $dollar value'
  Output	some $dollar value
  JSON	"var": "'some $dollar value'"

  
  
  

• Use with $ character from double quoted values

  Input	"some \$dollar value"
  Output	some $dollar value
  JSON	"var": "\"some \\$dollar value\""
