Introduction

The "Secure Variable" component allows you to store and use sensitive information within a flow in Wolkvox Studio—such as an API access token—without exposing the actual value to users or those reviewing the flow.

This component securely stores delicate values (e.g., passwords, tokens, private keys) so that their content is never displayed. These variables can be used in other components, like the REST API, to transmit critical data without compromising security.

Each Secure Variable instance generates a unique name that can be reused at different points in the flow.

Note: This component is available for use in Voice, ChatBot, Interaction Routing, and CRM + Webhook + Cron + AutoQAi + wvx Copilot routing points.

Configuration

To configure and use the Secure Variable component in wolkvox Studio:

• Drag the Secure Variable component from the Basics section into your flow.
• In the configuration window, enter the content you want to store securely.
• Click "Save and Generate Secure Variable".

Once saved, reopening the component will display the generated secure variable name (e.g., $wvsv_3_390). You can copy this name to the clipboard using the button on the right side of the field.

• Use this variable in other components, such as REST API, by writing in the headers or body section:
  • ‘token: $wvsv_3_390’
