Create custom variables that we will fill in for you. Reference them in the visual locator picker or when prompting the AI agent using $ (e.g. $firstname) by adjusting the enter text step.

Do you have an existing variable list? No problem. You can upload it via a json file. The file has to follow this format:

[
  {
    "name": "my_variable",
    "values": ["a", "b", "c"]
  }
]

If you provide several values we will randomly choose one of them per run.

Predefined variables:

We use also several predefined variables that do not show up in the default list, but can be used like the variables above:

  • $OCTO_USERNAME: the username you configured for use with your page in the sign up flow or the settings
  • $OCTO_PASSWORD: the password you configured for use with your page in the sign up flow or in the settings
  • $OCTO_URL: the URL of your page
  • $OCTO_STABLE_UUID: a random combination of letters and numbers that will be consistent through multiple references across a single run, but different if you run the agent again - full uuid of 36 characters
  • $OCTO_STABLE_UUID_SHORT: a random combination of letters and numbers that will be consistent through multiple references across a single run, but different if you run the agent again - maximum length of 8 characters.
  • $OCTO_TOTP: 2-Factor Authentication code if you require if for the login. Find out more about 2-FA enrollment
