A workflow variable is transient to a workflow execution, and is used to hold any required intermediate state. Example usages for workflow variables include loop counters, assigning error codes, or holding the value of a plugin output. Note these are available within the workflow only, and are not available for use by plugins.

A workflow input is used to pass user defined data into a workflow. When a workflow request is submitted by a user they will be prompted to enter values for the configured inputs. If a workflow is invoked by a parent workflow the values for the inputs must be configured at development time. An example usage for a workflow input would be allowing the user or parent workflow to specify the branch or tag to use for an SCM operation. Note these are available within the workflow only, and are not available for use by plugins.
