Variables
Learn how to use variables in ItsMyBot to display dynamic information in your messages and components.
Variables are dynamic values that can only be used in certain locations and not everywhere like placeholders. They are mainly used in language files. The format of a variable is like this: [[<variable_name>]]. Example: [[target_display_name]].
When variables are about a specific context (user, channel, role or time), they are available with a prefix. For example: target or executor will be prefixes for user-related variables: [[target_username]], [[executor_mention]], etc.
