Inserting Variable into webIQ ui actions

[aFouraker]

How can a variable be inserted into a webIQ action, iFrame, etc.  

For example, I would like to have an iFrame that updates based on a changing url. Is there a way to assign a string variable to the Source URL?

Hello,

this is not possible directly because WebIQ uses a subscription model for all items thus you cannot use any arbitrary item name without subscribing it for a specific widget and unsubscribing it when the widget is no longer active or has been removed.

You can however create a LocalScript and change the iframe source URL whenever an item changes by subscribing to that item in the LocalScript.

Here is an example how to update the URL of a ifram via JS.
