I tried the thing from where I have the TXN object available but it turned out that at that point I do not have the result yet. I also have a callback function registered with core.register_service(), where I have the result I need to send back to the HAProxy layer. It seems that this callback gets an AppletHTTP object. This object also has a set_var() method. If I do this: applet:set_var('txn.myvar', 'myvar_value') Then in the HAProxy layer I can reach the variable with %[var(txn.myvar)] So it DOES work ! But Is this safe ? Did I do it well or I was just lucky ? Thanks, Misi
