How could I change the Global Variable Value using GUI editable text or listbox?

In my simple model,I try to change the Global Variable value using GUI editable text,I tried to use hotlinkx and coldlinkx to achieve it ,but it failed.

I don't know if it is because of my wrong code.

return(node("/?Bay/Data",model()));

I would add a normal hotlink, and use

MODEL:/Tools/GlobalVariables/Bay/Data

It took me a moment as I'm new, but I realized the answer is: Using hotlink, type MODEL:/Tools/GlobalVariables/"Global Variable Name"/Data in the code for the hotlink replacing "Global Variable Name" with the name you have defined in your Global Variables.
