In Service Studio, a runtime property is a property that you can access at runtime. A runtime property can be:

• Read / Write: you can access its value and/or change it at runtime. In fact, to change the value of a runtime property, you should use the Assign element in your action flows, selecting the runtime property with the Select Variable window or directly typing its name:

<element name>.<property name>

• Read only: you can access the value of this property at runtime, but you cannot change it. To access a runtime property in your eSpace, use the Expression editor or directly type its name:

<element name>.<property name>

Widgets

Most widgets have a read only runtime property, the Id, that identifies the widget in the web screen or web block where it's running and that can be used when developing your JavaScript. See how this runtime property is used in the Id_of_HTML_tags.

Inside Web List Records widgets and Web Table Records widgets, the widgets' Id runtime property has a different value for each row. Thus, at runtime, when you iterate such list widgets, for the same widget placed inside them, you'll obtain one different Id  per occurrence.

Runtime properties of widgets placed inside Web List Records or Web Table Records widgets are always visible in the Scope Tree, in the Widgets folder. However, when used outside the list widgets that contain them, they return an empty value.
