How to use variables in card?

thomas Gandroz

Hi, I have a question about variables for a card. I would like to make a repeatable card with date in title (with Card repeater).

I set title with values like "EPM {cardcreationdate}" but it's not work... Did we need specificaly Power-UP or enable feature to use variable?

Hey @thomas Gandroz 

The Variables you're using(presumably from here) are only available for use with the Butler Power-Up. Currently, it won't be possible to utilize those variables in another Power-Up such as Card Repeater.

Instead I'd recommend enabling Butler, and creating a scheduled command that creates that card using the variable {cardcreationdate}.

Let me know if that helps, or if you have any additional questions!
