# Properties

A defined property can be used from the Flow designer as a constant in the workflows and thereby be used to define different business logic depending from the value of the property.

A property can exist in two different scopes or contexts:

* **Global:** the property is valid for the Environment that the User logs in to.
* **User:** the property is valid for the logged in user.

Enter the value for the environment properties under Environment in the menu. Choose the environment you what to add properties to and press the cogwheel to modify the environment information. Go to tab Properties and fill in the environment data. Enter the value for the user properties under Users in the menu. Choose the user you what to add properties to and press the cogwheel to modify the user information. Go to tab Custom Properties and fill in the user data.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://help.novacuraflow.com/6.11/development/flow-studio/environment/properties.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
