# Assign Value to Variable

Object to assign value to an existent variable.

## Settings

To use this object it's necessary to select the variable and enter the desired value.

**Filling in the object:**

| Field            | Description                                                                                                                                                                           |
| ---------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Title            | It's the object's name and doesn't need to be changed, unless you want to identify it to make it easier to find on the robot, for example: "Assign Variable Value - New Information". |
| Select Variables | Name of an already declared variable.                                                                                                                                                 |
| Variable Value   | New value to be replaced in the variable.                                                                                                                                             |
| Add Variable     | Option to place the value in more variables.                                                                                                                                          |

**INTERPOLATION**

This is a technical concept used in programming and you don't need to worry about changing it at this point.

## WHAT ARE VARIABLES

Variables are important structures in any programming, regardless of the language used to implement the codes or programs. They can be understood as a box, where data is stored temporarily or permanently and which is manipulated during the execution of the program.&#x20;

Source: usp.br

## PREREQUISITES

* Note that it's possible to assign a value to any variable created within the robot, but one of the most common prerequisites would be to use the [Declare Variable](/studio-en/studio/objetos/blocos-de-comando/declarar-variavel.md) object.

## USE CASES

* Use it to assign a value to a variable.&#x20;
* Storing data efficiently to be used in the correct execution of the robot.&#x20;
* More efficient handling in robot configuration.

## Example

Declare a variable and assign a value using a message box to view it.
