Variable Prefixes
Variables can be accessed with or without prefixes. The following prefixes provide explicit access to different scopes.
| Prefix | Syntax | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|---|
| V. | V.{VariableName} |
Explicitly references variables from the BomLinkVariableResolver | V.MyCustomVariable |
| I. | I.{FieldName} |
Explicitly references inventory/material fields | I.Quantity, I.Price |
| M. | M.{PropertyName} |
Explicitly references properties of the material source object (Entity, Beam, TslInstance, etc.) | M.Length, M.Name, M.Width |
| P. | P.{ProjectInfoProperty} |
Explicitly references ProjectInfo properties | P.Number, P.Revision, P.Name |
