Output Value

This step returns a value from the robot.

When converting a dependent Robot (called from a Basic Engine Robot) to a standalone Robot, replace the Return step with the Output Value step.

Properties

Variable: Name of the variable. Enter the variable whose value should be returned.

Manage the output values using the Robot Editor tab in Design Studio Settings or the State pane menu items.

To open the Robot Editor tab:

In Design Studio, on the Settings menu bar, select Design Studio Settings > Robot Editor.
If output values have already been collected in the State pane, right-click Output Values and select Limit Output.

You can perform the following actions on the output values.

Select whether you want to collect the output values in the State pane.

Clear the Collect Output Values in State check box to hide output values from the State pane.

Clearing the check box after executing the steps that already have output values does not affect the existing listing in the State pane. Remove the required output values manually.
After the Output Value step is executed, all values are collected, but only the latest are displayed in the State pane.

Go to the Robot Editor tab and specify the Max Number of Output Values Shown.
To remove all the output values listed in the State pane, right-click Output Values and select Clear Output.
To remove a single value listed in the State pane, right-click the required output value and select Clear.
