XTM Cloud can be configured to exclude specific text fragments. With this configuration, text fragments are extracted from source files using regular expressions (REGEX) and converting them into inline tags or placeholders. These are called custom-variables.
One <custom-variables/>variables> tag is used to identify one type of variable within a file. There can be more <custom-variables/>variables> tags and they will be processed in the order that they occur in the file.

The configuration, which uses regular expressions, can be created at all three configuration levels (client, customer and project template). It cannot be configured per language. For more information about which configuration levels are available in XTM Cloud, see How can a source file be processed and what are configuration levels?.
