Workspace Variables

Workspace Variables is the record of each workspace's address, phone, hours, and custom fields. Posts, ads, and broadcasts use these values to personalize content, so keep them current.

Three Views: Variables, Custom, and Map

Use the buttons at the top right to switch between three views.

View	What it shows	Use it to
Variables	One row per workspace with address, contact details, hours, and a Locations column.	Edit workspace details and open each workspace's studios.
Custom	Your brand's custom variables as columns, one value per workspace.	Fill in per-workspace values such as a franchisee ID or local offer.
Map	Every workspace's studios, radii, ZIP code territories, and excluded areas on one map, with estimated reach.	Spot gaps and overlaps between neighboring workspaces.

Locations and Google Sheet sync

Click Show in the Locations column to open a workspace's studios. Each studio card shows its address, radius, and whether it is On for ad targeting, and ads that use workspace Locations follow these studios automatically.

To sync Locations from a Google Sheet, share the sheet with Flamel as a Viewer. Flamel reads it daily to add and update studios and keeps the changes you make in Flamel. See Locations for Ad Targeting for setup and review.

Custom

Click Manage Variables to add a custom variable, then fill in a value for each workspace. See Custom variables for naming and how content uses them.

Map

The list beside the map shows each workspace's location count, ZIP codes, excluded areas, and estimated reach. Pick a workspace to see only its territory, or click the pencil to edit its Locations. See Map view for how to read the map and what to look for.

Custom Variables

Custom variables add brand-specific fields such as a store manager name, local offer, or regional specialty. Each one appears as a column you edit per workspace row, and you reference it in posts and ads with {{custom.field_key}}.

See Custom variables for how to create and manage these fields.
