### General

This placeholder can be used to access the value of a [Global Variable](/release34/docs/global-variables) from an [Expression](/release34/docs/introduction-to-mail-and-deploy-expressions).

### Syntax

The syntax for this type of placeholder is:

          Global Variable Value Placeholder Syntax

          

[GlobalVariable].[<name_of_global_variable>]

### Example

Let's suppose there is a [Global Variable](/release34/docs/global-variables) named *RootPath* and its value is set to the following [Expression](/release34/docs/introduction-to-mail-and-deploy-expressions):

          Global Variable Value Expression

          

"\\FILESERVER\Reports\Sales Reports"

The following expression accesses the global variable:

          Expression with Global Variable Value Placeholder

          

[GlobalVariable].[RootPath] & "\My Report Name"

When the expression is evaluated at runtime, it will return *\\FILESERVER\Reports\Sales Reports\My Report Name"*.
