Using Global variables in Dynamic form rules and Pipelines.

Hi guys. 

I have created a Global variable (say, "Date" with value = 01/10/2023).

I'm using this global variable in various formula fields. 

But Can I use this Global variable in any Pipeline & Dynamic form rules (old form)?

Note: I know we can create a local Date field with Date field=ToDate([Date]) on table, but I don't want to create a new field. :)

    I believe you can use it everywhere but keep in mind this is just a text string. It's not a date, so in practical terms, to use it you need a formula to convert it to a date.

    In a Pipeline you would need to use Jinja so that sounds complicated, more complicated than simply adding a formula to the table.
