# Step Group

A *Step Group* is a series of steps that you can reuse in other scenarios. By using Step Groups, you can create scenarios efficiently without having to re-record the same sequence of steps.

## How to create a Step Group

1. Select ***[Step Groups]*** from the menu on the left side.
2. Select either the iOS tab or the Android tab.

3. Click ***[New]***.

The rest of the recording process is the same as described in [Creating a Scenario](/mobile/docs/en/scenario-creation).

## How to use Step Groups

### Select it when creating a new scenario

When you create a new scenario, you can select either ***[Create from build file]*** or ***[Create from Step group]***. If you select ***[Create from Step group]***, you can create a scenario that starts with a Step Group.

### Change Step 1 of an existing scenario to a Step Group

You can change Step 1 of an existing scenario from launching the target app to executing a Step Group. To do this, select Step 1 and change the action from ***[Launch]*** to ***[Execute Step Group]***.

## Overwriting the values of a Step Group

You can overwrite the values of a Step Group used in a scenario. Open the Step Group and click ***[Edit]***.

![edit_value_en](https://cdn.document360.io/a099d8a2-cfd2-42ca-9906-68b4a337f4a5/Images/Documentation/edit_value_en.png?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-07T12%3A48%3A29Z&se=2026-11-07T13%3A48%3A29Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=LiOqw8CDBtcCEWBTVyyouAXpzGXLA5TAI%2BO1L0EOwHE%3D)

The input field appears. Enter the values you want to use in the scenario. ![overwritten_en](https://cdn.document360.io/a099d8a2-cfd2-42ca-9906-68b4a337f4a5/Images/Documentation/overwritten_en.png?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-07T12%3A48%3A29Z&se=2026-11-07T13%3A48%3A29Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=LiOqw8CDBtcCEWBTVyyouAXpzGXLA5TAI%2BO1L0EOwHE%3D)

To revert to the original values used in the Step Group, click ***[Use original value]***. Once you've overwritten the values, be sure to save them. This feature is useful if you want to use the same login steps but with different users for each scenario, for example.

## Change one Step Group to another

To change a Step Group to a different one, open the Step Group and click on its name.

Select the desired Step Group from the list of existing Step Groups.
