	XSLT (Extensible Stylesheet Language Transformations) is a declarative, XML-based language used for the transformation of XML. The original XML is not changed; rather, a new set of XML is created based on the content of an existing one using the XSLT. The XML Bible contains a tutorial on XSLT authoring that can be used as a reference.

	AppBoard Data Source queries can incorporate system and custom variables into the URL string using portal SHIM variables. The values of these variables are dynamically inserted into the URL prior to making the request. For example, if you would like a query to with a variable to incorporate the current date / time you can do so as follows:		AppBoard Data Source queries can incorporate system and custom variables into the URL string using portal SHIM variables.
