Pipeline Variables.
Certain fields on a pipeline step can utilize pipeline variables - special strings that are replaced with user-provided values at runtime. These variables can be used for highly dynamic workflows where specific or custom values are desired.
Variable Format.
A pipeline variable follows this format:
{{variable}}
and supports the following characters:
a-z0-9-
Not all pipeline step fields support variables. When using the Portal, fields supporting variables are specified with an icon.
Variables in WebHook Body
Variables are supported and can be used in the body of the POST webhook step.
Magic Variables.
Cycle provides automatic support for some variables, known as magic variables, that will automatically be filled in during pipeline run.

Post to Webhook.
For the step Post to Webhook, users can read headers from the post. Specifically x-pipeline-components-(stage-identifier) is a map of all the objects that were modified during the execution of that stage.
