How to change a value in a material from a blueprint?

Hello all,

Simply put, I’ve got a material that I would like to change a value on with each tick of time. See the picture below. Instead of using Time in the material I want to replace this with a timer from another blueprint so I can control the way I want to. How to do this? What is the link that is needed?

Thanks!

This is how to change a parameter value in a material.

Maybe it’s not a good idea to do that within the tick…

Thank you very much for your response. I used set scalar parameter value in combination with a timeline to make everything work. Yes!!! Thanks.
