+contributors: [delphine-l]
+optional_parameters:
+  var_name: Name of the workflow Variable
+examples:
+  Use a Species Name:

+# Create a workflow variable
+
+1. Open the workflow editor
+2. Click on **Inputs** in the toolbar on the left
+3. Click on **Simple inputs used for Workflow logic**
+4. Click on the created input box in the workflow editor
+5. Label your input with  `{{ include.var_name }}`
+
+# Use a workflow variable to rename a dataset
+
+To use the workflow parameter for renaming a dataset, use the syntax: `${Parameter Name}`. For example, to rename a dataset using the variable used above, proceed with the following steps: 
+1. Open the workflow editor
+2. Click on the tool in the workflow. This will open the tool configuration on the right-hand side of the screen with all details, like parameters etc.
+3. Scroll down and click on **Configure Output**
+4. In **Rename Dataset**, enter the new dataset name: `Tool run on ${{{ include.var_name }}}`. `Species Name` must match the workflow variable name you created before.
