Hello,

I'm trying to add a {zone} variable in the Path field for a custom notification, but it doesn't appear to expand the variable.

As an example, I have something like this as my Path:

/contactSensor/zone{zone}/open
/contactSensor/zone{zone}/closed

When those requests reach their endpoint, it actually has {zone} in the URL instead of the actual zone number.

Are the variables only available in the notification body, or can I use them in any of the form fields like Path and Custom Keys?

Thanks,

Ron

The only available replacements are the ones currently shown when you add a field to the form. However, if you use {{message}} and then edit the custom message you see you can replace the zone id there - unfortunately if you want to do this per zone, you will need to add the zone filter to each notification and create one for each zone to achieve what you are looking for and you can define a custom key/value for each one that way.

We do no replacements on any paths, no

Thanks for the info. I think I can achieve what I need by changing the fault and restored messages to just {zone} and then using {{message}} as a "custom value" as you suggested.
