How do I reference data from a module?

Queries and Resources

I have a super simple module which as three inputs.
I've placed this module on a form.
How do I reference/get the data from the module?
This document https://docs.retool.com/docs/modules magically has 'global1' but I could not see where or how 'global1' was being created.
I've attached a screenshot of the dialog that I'm working with.

Solution:
Reference the value this way
playerData1.playerFirstName
Where playerData1 is the name of the custom module instance and playerFirstName is the name of the output variable.

Hey @peteletkemanca!

Happy to help here! If you are looking to reference data from within a module in the parent app, you can add outputs to this module. In your case, it could look like this within the module for example:

990×457 47.2 KB

Now in the parent app, anytime you enter values into your form, the value will be accessible on the module:

1254×526 52.7 KB

You can now reference {{formModule.firstNameOutput}} etc. Do you think this could work for your use case here?\
