Type

Variable

Available from

Variable Editor only (see Using the Variable Editor).

You need to have the Voice Portal Configurable Application Variables pluggable connector enabled (see Pluggable Connectors Tab)

Purpose

The value of the VP Configurable Variable is administered through the VPMS interface. The idea is that the same application that uses the variable can be deployed on different sites in an enterprise. The behavior of the application can be changed adminstratively to accomodate the local specifics.

Behavior

The VP Configurable Variable is an extension to the Simple Variable, thus it inherits the same behavior in the Variable Editor. When used in the application, you can only access its value, but not modify it. The value of the variable is being administered in the VPMS interface. The value get retrieved from VPMS in runtime everytime it is updated.
