Data screen

Shows a list of process data variables that you can use to configure your activity or form control, instead of fixed values.

As an alternative to using literal data in a configuration field, process data variables are short strings that let you use data that changes with input from process participants or external systems.

For example, if you want to use a person's birth date, instead of entering the literal information like "January 15, 1962," you could use a variable called "BirthDate" that gets the information from a form field, your process, data in your app, or an external data source, such as a database, or a SharePoint list.
