# Configure output port properties

Configure the ways the output ports or fields of components or methods return output in the RPA Desktop Design Studio.

## Before you begin

Role required: none

## Procedure

1.  Right-click the output field or Data out port of the component or method.

2.  Click **Override**.

3.  Configure how the method or component processes the output as given in the table.

</td></tr><tr><td>

</td><td>

Field that appears for Data Out ports only. There are two options:-   **Connection**: Pass the data to another component.
-   **Variable**: Map a global or a local variable from where the data must be written. If you select this option, the Data Out port on the component disappears and the variable name appears on the port.
