Set value to Project variable of object type

[umakant]

I am trying to use Project variable of object type to store my object name mapping. But after I create the project variable of object type, I am not able to assign a value. I am getting an error "The variable of the object type cannot be edited"?

Please help me to fix this.

Thanks,

Umakant

Hi

You can't do this in project variables inside IDE, but you can easily add value in script routine.

  let obj = Project.Variables.Var1 = {param: "val", param2: "val2"};

@Wamboo Thanks for your response.

Here is what I am trying to do

1. I have a object reference (Aliases.browser.pageSvl005epicno301EcmcLan8443Ep2) in my script routine 

2.  I would like to store it in Project Variable for Object type

3. Like you mentioned 

let obj = Project.Variables.Var1 = {param: "val", param2: "val2"};

what does param: "val" referring to here. I am  not sure about it? Please help me understand it.

Thanks,

Basically, object type variables can only be assigned in code.  So, you would have to do an assignment like

Project.Variables.Var1 = Aliases.browser.pageSvl005epicno301EcmcLan8443Ep2

You can't assign it ahead of time.

Hi,
the 'val' it's the value you want to assign to object property. In my example you have a custom object which you want to fill with data from test routine.
