Question Variables

Question variables let you turn parts of a query into reusable inputs. When a query includes placeholders such as {{start_date}} or {{region}}, FireAI shows them in the Variable Settings panel so you can choose the right input type and default value.

Open variable settings

1. Open a question or query in the editor.
2. Add variables in the query using the {{variable_name}} format.
3. Open Variable Settings to choose the variable type and default value for each placeholder.

Configure date range variables

For Date Range variables, you can choose a preset such as Week Range, Month Range, or Year Range, or switch to Custom Date Range.

• In preset modes, clicking a day expands the value to the full week, month, or year for that selection.
• In custom mode, select the start and end dates directly.
• The calendar popup includes Apply and Reset, so draft changes are only saved when you confirm them.
