Support global variables

Paul | Last updated: Jun 21, 2022 02:24PM UTC

There are extensions that have some support for variables, but they seem like overkill for handling only variables. I can also achieve some of this with Session Handling Rules in Proxy Options, but it is not as easy when wanting to support multiple variables. My example is during API testing, I may end up with many repeater tabs for all the different requests I'm working with and they use an expiring JWT. It would helpful to set multiple variables with different JWT values corresponding to different users. Then when a token expires I can update the value and not have to update each Repeater tab as I go or if I want to use a different user's token, I only have to change the variable name in the Repeater tab.

I should have stated that how Postman handles variables made me want for this in Burp. That might help get across what I'm wanting to do. Thank you.
