Hey,

Well i see two possible options:

- Create Global Tags on the fly.  
A flowcard would not have Set Text1 = [input], but more something like Set [name]=[input], where you could fill in the name and a Global Tag would be created.
- A Virtual/Fake Device with customisable property names ( like [AVD](https://community.homey.app/t/advanced-virtual-device-share-your-device/68676)), which you could set through flowcards like the current JSON cards.

But both solutions have one very big weakness: Using the same tag at the same time is gonna create issues, because the scope of the Results are outside of the Flow.  
This can/will cause “random” feeling errors.

This makes any solutions that i currently can see, not very usefull.
