|---|---|
| Steampipe Mod | The steampipe mod to run. |

Using Variables
To understand how to add variables, consider the following example from the Steampipe CLI:
steampipe check aws_tags.benchmark.mandatory --var 'mandatory_tags=["Owner"]'
From this example, you can see that the variable mandatory_tags has a value of ["Owner"].
To add this variable in the form, enter mandatory_tags in the "Name" column and ["Owner"] in the "Value" column.
