Hi MAHESH GONDA,

The storing of your variants depends on the requirement of your application. If yours is an server side app, you have to use OData to store variants. If the variants is required for an single execution instance only, then you can store it in JSON or even in localStorage also.

If you are storing your variants in the OData :

You have to first create an new entity set (name does not matter in this case) in back end OData side, where you have to define your variant fields. When your user logs in, you have to get the corresponding variants from the particular entity set and use it in your UI accordingly.

Hope this helps,
