User Story
As an automations rule creator, I need the "create variable" action to make rule-global variables when encapsulated within an "if\else" branch, because otherwise this functionality is useless together.
Context
- The "create variable" action allows you to create a variable and assign it a value within your Automation rule; however the variable is only accessible within it's branch.
- The "if\else" condition allows you to set a condition, and if met, perform an action stored in a branch.
However if you need to, for example, set TWO variables and then multiply them you cannot - each variable will only be available within it's if\else block.
The workaround is to create custom fields for each, which is I think the opposite of the intention of the "create variable" function.
