Everything is persistent in Self, so storing data is easy.

If you want to store something specific to a user, you can store it on their user object using the "speaker" variable.

speaker.userid = "user1";
speaker.password = "12345";

To store something specific to the current conversation use the "conversation" variable.

conversation.userid = "user1";
conversation.password = "12345";

To store a global variable use the "#" symbol to create a global symbol object.

#credentials.userid = "user1";
#credentials.password = "12345";

To use a variable in a GET or POST call just set in in the parameters.

var info = Http.requestJSON("https://www.api.com/fetch?user=" + speaker.userid + "&password=" + speaker.password);
