Why to use and how to get an idea to use. Please share a easiest to understand
(not from academic). I don t get an idea of using assign, hence requesting you to clarify.

Hi @ramkrishna2k3

When you assign a variable, you use the = symbol. Assign activity is used to Map the Value with Variable. The name of the variable goes on the left and the value you want to store in the variable goes on the right which are of Same DATA TYPE.

Ex: UserName = RamaKrishna

In above line UserName is Variable, instead of RamaKrishna you can assign any other value like Ram or Krishna with another assign activity.
