# Stream Get Store Variable Action

With the help of the Stream Get Store Variable Action, it is possible to read out a store variable that exists in the [Stream Variable Store](https://docs.helmut.de/helmut4-releases/helmut4-components/streamdesigner/stream-variable-store) by specifying the name (key) of the variable.

The value of the variable is then available in the form of the node results and can be read out using the wildcard {[node.result.?](https://docs.helmut.de/helmut4-releases/helmut4-components/streamdesigner/wildcards/result-or-return-wildcards-2/node-result)).

Another option to receive the value of a Store Variable would be by using the wildcard [Store Variable ?](https://docs.helmut.de/helmut4-releases/helmut4-components/streamdesigner/wildcards/variable-related-wildcards-3/store-variable).

{% hint style="danger" %}
Keep in mind to ***use only the variable key*** "test1234" when requesting the variable value.

Using the wildcard "{store.variable.test1234}" would lead to an issue due to syntax error.
