I have set a variable for a QuickApp in the web interface. Now I want to retrieve that variable with self:getVariable("varname")

It return nil however. How come? What am I doing wrong?

There is an issue with QA variables.

You need at least one time to set variable using self:setVAriable("varname","value")

after that it will work

Create  a new QA variable using UI.

Go to QA:init and try to getVariable (the new one). You'll receive nil

Green box? When you define and save new variable, QA executed automatically (It doesn't wait for any green box).

and right here the message Comes, if not, you have another problem (or maybe we talk at cross purposes?)

when you wrote your Code and saved it - sure, will get executed, when you have not added the variable yet, sure Nil will be there, when you go to variables and add - and click on save - and green popus confirms it - Code will get executed and variable value will get displayed.

  • Strangely enough it works now! The thing that might have happened is that I had to do a reboot due to the whole system being hung. After the reboot the variables worked. Same bug that @cag014  had on occasions?

    Anyhow, thanks for your responses. I am new to Fibaro and just received my HC3 a little over a week ago...
