CreateVariable

Create variable

This task allows you to create a brand new variable on Data Fabric.

The task can be launched with the command gradle createVariable.

Configuration

The configuration variable allows to create multiple variables at once.

Configuration object

Once your saagie object is available on your project with the server correctly set up, you need to fill the variable list which will be created.

saagie {
    server {...}

    variables {[
        {
            name = <variable_name>
            value = <variable_value>
            password = <password_flag>
        }
    ]}
}

The platform where variable will be created is set up in the server object. The gradle task will fail if a variable with the same name already exists.
