Passing variables to macros

What is this skill?

Passing variables to macros involves using session data or other variables to dynamically populate component fields, making forms pre-fill with user data or display personalised content.

Why is it important?

• Pre-populated forms – Show users their previous answers when they return
• Dynamic content – Display different text based on user data
• Check answers pages – Pass all stored data to summary components
• Personalisation – Create tailored experiences for each user
