Tip

Download the tutorial app on Hash Variables from Joget Workflow Marketplace to learn more about Hash Variable.

 

Nested Hash Variable

Since version 3.0.3, a A Hash Variable can be used inside another Hash Variable to form a Nested Hash Variable.

The syntax for the inner Hash Variable is wrapped by a pair of {curly bracket}.

Code Block
languagejava
titleSyntax / Format
#prefix.{prefix.variableKey}#

...

The parsed/returned Hash Variable may cause incompatibility with the current context/environment such as syntax error in a script.

Therefore, one may pass in additional parameters into the hash variable declared to escape certain characters.
