I just came across this post

https://community.nintex.com/community/build-your-own/blog/2016/05/18/using-the-store-data-and-retrieve-data-actions

by @cassy explaining how to use Store data and Retrieve data to pass variables between workflows.  I need to pass a variable from child to parent, which can change at different points in the workflow.  Do I need to restore the data in the child, if it changes?  And do I need to re-retrieve it in the parent, if I need to check it at different intervals?

Hi,

The data that is stored is the data as it is at the time the action is run. If the data changes after the data is stored it will not reflect in the data store until the data store action is run again.
