I’m successfully accessing a pageData.payload array using handlebars and the each helper.

But on that same page I want to show what’s in another non array variable pageData.test , and I’m having some trouble.

tried using just {{ pageData.test }} gives me nothing

Hi @Lars_Andersson

If you are within the the `{{#each}}` iterator, you have to use `{{@root.pageData.foo}}` get back to the higher scope.

`@root` is always available for you to use.

I know I can reach a specific pagedata value like this  
{{@root.pageData.runtimes.items.1.fef\_minutes}} while in a #each loop,  
but if I want to use the @index or @key insted of the number .1. above, it doesn’t work.  
Do I need to use triple brackets or something else I’m missing in the syntax?
