Text Variable
First time using Widgets/Data Cloud.
In Storyline have multiple fillable textboxes, each textbox has two object triggers.
First: Set TextBoxName equals to the typed value; When TextBox_Name loses focus
Second: Execute JaveScript; When Textbox_Name loses focus
The JavaScript is: CloudSet('textboxnamesuggestions', 'value');
Question: What goes in the 'value' area so that when the user fills in the textbox their answer is recorded.
Do I need to create a variable to hold that data in Storyline, if so what does that look like?
Currently, when I put text into one of the textboxes I just get the word "value"
Here is the storyline review file - issue on slide 3 - https://360.articulate.com/review/content/df37f7f5-a38d-49f9-b900-cdb06b1ea443/review

That's more of a Storyline question, not widget specific. To get a Storyline variable with javascript you would use the player.GetVar function. See, for example, https://community.articulate.com/discussions/articulate-storyline/javascript-storyline-what-does-var-player-getplayer-function-do
So in your case, you would do something like this:
var player=GetPlayer();
var TextBoxName = player.GetVar("TextBoxName");
CloudSet('textboxnamesuggestions', TextBoxName);
