You have a couple of options. 1. This could be something the component could figure out internally at run time 2. you create a shared <app-state> element that is declared/used inside your component. See https://www.polymer-project.org/0.5/docs/polymer/polymer.html#global in the 0.5 docs. 3. you pass around globals using bindings. We've been doing this for the IO website this year, and it's working quite well. Think of it as dependency injection:
<my-app config="[[config]]"></my-app> Then inside you'd use the config: <iron-ajax url="[[config.url]]"> The only downside of this last approach is that it tends to get tedious. `config` needs to be passed down to every component (and sub component) that needs the state object.
