Overview

Simple tool to add variables in content, title, header, and footer. Great way to add easy replacements in docs and templates!

Doc Variables allow you to quickly add a variable to any document in any style.  A sidebar interface generates a form with all your variables.  Fill in the form and apply the variables to generate a new document.   Great tool for creating templates that can be shared across a team to create consistent output (e.g. contracts, invoices, or client reports).  Works with Google Docs and Google Slides.

Latest Feature: New user interface!  We've integrated the Semantic UI to give the Doc Variables a cleaner and updated look.  We have also included the following new features:

- References (reference external data)
- Hidden Fields
- Constants

Note: Doc Variables remains free, but non-subscribers will be given a delay prior to applying variables.  If you find it useful, please consider subscribing.

Example Variable Syntaxes:

${Variable Name}
${Variable Name::~Default Value} ("Default Value" will be pre-filled)
${Textarea Name::textarea::~Add this text as default content.}
${Select Variable::options::One,~Two,Three} (Two will be selected)
${Other Doc::file} (Imports a separate document)
${My Logo::image::width=200,height=200} (Adds an image from your drive with the width of 200 and height of 200)

Unfortunately, Google has not incorporated add-ons into their mobile and tablet apps. I'm not sure they will, but you can always make a request. Thanks!

DocVariables is a total life saver! I use it at work and it totally transforms the way that I streamline work processes; take more time to think instead of redoing slides and documents. Thanks Doc Vars team for this amazing tool!

Extremely useful in our office, we have updated our templates to use the variables and it saves us a lot of time in setting up new docs and slides. This is a fantastic tool in our Google Workplace toolbelt!
