Feature Function

What will this feature do differently?
This will allow Bitwarders to declare variables somewhere and reference that variable using a special syntax, i.e. moustache/handlebars: {{my_variable}}; or dollar/bash syntax: $my_var (or something else). -
What benefits will this feature bring?
This will allow users to update a single important variable which is shared by many logins or even across many forms. My name and address don’t change too often, so when creating a new form, for example, it would be great to be able to specify {{first}} and {{last} or even {{sydney_address}} and {{berlin_address}} (these are weak examples but they get the point accross, email vars is really where it’s at). -
Remember to add a tag for each client application that will be affected
Okay.
Related topics + references
- Are there any related topics that may help explain the need and function of this feature?
Bitwarders could potentially add the variable as a new, special type of entry to their Vault:
It would require 3 attributes:
-
name: the displayed/user chosen name of the variable, i.e. “Work Email”
-
reference: how the variable is referenced, i.e. {{work_em}}
-
value: the value that the variable holds, i.e. [email protected]
