Text variables make the content of Page Builder modules dynamic. For example, they can save you the effort of looking up and entering project IDs and space keys in module settings. Additionally, you don't have to update text and settings when you make changes to your site, or when you export/import landing page layouts.
Add text variables in a module’s title or body text
Click a module’s heading or body text to edit it.
