Inline variable after select layer by attribute

CharelvanDijk — Wed, 09 Apr 2025 07:20:42 GMT

Dear all,

I would like to use the name of a selected municipality (the field is called statnaam) as an inline variable, so that the name is taken into account in the map layer from an intersect. See attachment. Unfortunately, I can't get it to work. Does anyone have a suggestion?

Hi @CharelvanDijk, you can use the Get Field Value tool to generate the field value that can then be used as a inline variable.

You want to have the your updated layer output as the input into the get field value tool.

Thank you, Brendan. I used the wrong tool, but with your suggestion it worked right away. Awesome.
