Possible to feed multiple tools with same text box?

Hi,

I have a text box input that asks the user for a year, is it possible to then feed that year to multiple tools? Or would I have to create a separate text box for each tool?

Thanks,

Johnny

You can use that text box with multiple tools. Do you have an example workflow you can share to showcase your challenge?

Sure can, will just have a separate Action tool between the Text Input and the tool it's modifying.

Ah, didn't know you could have multiple action tools for the same input. Figured it out from there, thanks so much!
