    Description

      Variables less powerful than parameters. Specifically, they don't support sensitive values. On the Variables dialog, this should be conveyed to the user to help guide them to use parameters instead.

      One suggestion for wording:

      "Variables are still supported for compatibility purposes but they do not allow the same power as Parameters such as support for sensitive parameters. Variables will be removed in a later release so please change to using parameters."
