Editing a variable

A variable in Qlik Sense is a named entity, containing a data value. When a variable is used in an expression, it is substituted by its value or the variable's definition. Variables are defined using the variables dialog or in the script using the data load editor.

You can choose to edit a variable from the variables dialog.

Information note

You can edit variables defined in the script in the variables dialog. If you reload the script, however, your changes will be undone.

  1. When editing a sheet, click Variables in the edit bar on the sheet to open the variables dialog.

    The variables dialog opens.

  2. In the row of the variable you want to delete, click and select Edit.

  3. Edit the variable as desired.
  4. Click Save.
