Hello Jani
In my case, WIFI_NETWORK and PASSWORD should be env variables that’s why I was thinking of using this method :
${value} = Get Environment Variable HTTP_PROXY
${value1} = Get Environment Variable ${wifi_ssid}
${value2} = Get Environment Variable ${wifi_pwd}
then I have to use RUN PROCESS ${value} ${value1} ${value2} to run the shell cmd
thanks
