We have made a change to the way path variables (or Assembly Variables) work. Previously, they were only available for certain parameters for certain Robot, like the `path`parameter of the [/s3/store](/docs/robots/s3-store.md) Robot or the `container`parameter for the [/cloudfiles/store](/docs/robots/cloudfiles-store.md) Robot.

With this change, you can now use all Assembly Variables (including those of your own, with `${fields.*}`) in all parameters of all Robots. We think this is great news, because this will make our Assembly system even more powerful! 😄

Please find the updated documentation for Assembly Variables here:[Passing fields and variables into Templates](/docs/topics/assembly-instructions.md#assembly-variables).

Enjoy!
