SetGlobal

The SetGlobal action sets values to the global object. It takes an object as parameters, and sets each of those values to the global object. This is useful if you need to set a value that needs to be available across multiple pages in the app, like the id of a currently selected object. SetGlobal works just like SetState, except it sets to the global object and not state.

Parameters

object

Object with key value pairs to set in global.
