Using Variables in Conditions

You can pass dynamic values from earlier steps into this command by using variables for the Lark Sheets selection, the Column, and the Content to write fields. If the UI marks fields with {x}, it indicates those fields support variables. Common patterns include:

  • Referencing a sheet object captured in a previous step.

  • Calculating the target column index or letter based on prior logic.

  • Supplying content generated or transformed earlier in the workflow.

Notes

  • Confirm the target Lark Sheets document is available and you have edit permissions.

  • Verify the column reference: use 1-based index or a valid column letter; avoid mixing formats (e.g., “1A”).

  • Ensure the content format matches downstream formulas or validations in the sheet to prevent write failures.

  • Writing to a protected or locked column will fail; adjust permissions or target a different column.

  • Large writes may be slower; consider batching content if supported by your workflow design.
