The **Get Configuration** block retrieves the specified configuration's value and sends that value from its output port.

## Output

**Select a configuration** - When a configuration is selected, this port sends the configuration's value.

## Setup

Click the dropdown list and select a configuration. The list shows configurations created in the flow's [**Settings**](/docs/postman-flows/build-flows/configure/configure-values-actions/).

You can [insert](/docs/postman-flows/reference/blocks/overview/#insert-data-blocks-into-other-blocks) the **Get Configuration** block into the following blocks:
