So I recently decided I needed to “split” a variable in two. Originally it had this naming structure component-name/variable-name.

I duplicated the variable, and renamed them to this naming convention component-name/app-section/variable name. 

Now after publishing the change, my components that was using the original variable, still has the original variable applied to it, and the changes I made to the variable with the name update are not applied to it. 

I understand that moving a variable into a different group might not be optimal, but technically it is the same variable as it was before. To achieve the updates, I now have to detach the variable from the components using it, then re-apply it. Is there a reason for this, and is there a way to “refresh” variables in some way?

 

I have the same issue, even without regrouping, a simple rename of a string variable will break the connection.

 

I currently have a separate file containing all the string variables and import it as a library in my other files. Whenever I rename or regroup the string variables, publish the updates, I do receive the "new update" in my consumer files, but it will not update the variables as expected.
