> The row id is “out of scope” because you used a green block outside of its function or event block. So the green `row id` only contains a value inside of the `create row` block. If you want to use that value outside of it, you need to assign in to a variable.

That green block is only in scope within the bounds of the “then do” section of the block from which it was pulled.
