Variables

Goobi can also use variables when performing certain actions. Some of these variables can be used only in specific contexts, e.g. the variables {login} and {user full name} when configuring the LDAP.

There are also ‘static’ and ‘dynamic’ variables. These can be used at various points, e.g. when calling scripts or configuring projects.
