Does Set-OctopusVariable carry values across Deployment Tasks

When I am Deploying, if I call Set-OctopusVariable in one script, is the value the same in subsequent tasks or do the values only persist within the current task?
Using Octopus 2.0

Thanks -

Hi Michael,

No, the variable is currently set for the duration of the current package deployment only. We’d like to extend this in future but there are a lot of design points to consider here.

Thanks for getting in touch,
Nick
