Some variables are generated automatically when you create an experience or perform some action. Many of these variables have their values set automatically by the GMetri system. You can use these variables in your Experience logic using Rulesor String Substitution.

fullname_var - A string variable that contains the full name of the user if we get it from the authentication mechanism.
firstname_var - A string variable that contains the first name of the user if we get it from the authentication mechanism.
lastname_var - A string variable that contains the first name of the user if we get it from the authentication mechanism.
