I’m either having a mind blank, or have the Variable and Workflow UIDs been removed from the editor?

Previously, I could easily copy and paste the id.

Have they been removed on purpose? @Alexis

If you press on the code icon at the top, do you see “show dev informations” or “hide dev informations”? It needs to say “hide” for the variables to show for you. (If it says “show”, clicking it should toggle to “hide”)
