**Library values** are essentially variables created and used by a library publisher and intended to have their values set by the library consumer. These values allow library publishers to create configurable variables that are useful in different contexts, such as API keys, global settings, or other project-specific configurations. These values allow consumers to input specific data required for the library to function properly in their project.

After setting Library Values, they function just like any other variable in FlutterFlow. You can bind them to components, actions, API calls, or any property that allows you to configure dynamic values across your library project. You can access Library Values via the ****Set from Variable**** menu.

To set library values, navigate to **Settings and Integrations > Project Setup > Project Dependencies** page. When you import a library, you'll be prompted to set values for required Library Values. If the library has already been added, click on **View Details**, which will open a dialog and then you can enter a value.
