# Local Global Tags

Local Global tags are references through to [Local Globals](/flow/guide/scripting-reference/variables/local-globals) you have created within Actions. Local Globals are very much like Super Globals except that there scope is limited to a single instance of execution of an Action. You can use Local tags anywhere where Tags are accepted.

Local Global tags use the special opening tag <# and closing tag #>. Between the tags you need to provide the name of the Local Global in the format

<#localglobalname#>

For example, if you have created a Local called MyLocalGlobal you can reference it with the tag `<#MyLocalGlobal#>`.

The Local Global will be converted to a string value when the tag is translated. Floats and Datetime types will convert using the standard format. You can control the Local Global format by providing a display format when you create the Local Global. Refer to [Local Globals](/flow/guide/scripting-reference/variables/local-globals) for more information on specifying a display format.
