Hello,

I would like to access variables from a global module in others modules in my templates.

In this global modules, I’m getting value from a HubDB row like this:

`{% set formation_date_text = module.hubdbrow_field.columns.date_text %}`

In another module, I want to display this variable like this:

`{{ formation_date_text }}`

This in not working. What is the process to make this happening ?

Tx,

Hi @MPirnay

Currently, it is not possible to use the variable of a module in a different module.

Thanks!

Hi @MPirnay,

you could create a module with all of your settings, and use [export\_to\_template\_context](https://developers.hubspot.com/docs/cms/building-blocks/modules/export-to-template-context). Implement the module in a template and you can access all the settings from within the module.

Tipp: Erin Wiggers talks about this in the lates [Developer-HUG](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dBJZetIHRJM)

hope that helps

best,

Anton
