Notification on mobile with variable substitution

[Skov]

Hi UD community

I have a Polisy with mostly Insteon devices.  

I setup a notification via the mobile app when my garage has been open for 30 minutes, I have a program which runs when the garage is open and sends notifications every 30 minutes.

I'd like to include the value of a variable (number with 1 decimal place) in the notification but am not having success, the notification text sends and appears on my mobile but instead of including the number value delivers a blank space where the variable should be.

The network resource has the 'body' set to this .. 

title=Garage Open&body=The Garage has been open for ${var.1.decGarageOpenTime} hours

--

The variable format from here - have tried a few variations.

Anyone got this working? 

Thanks

Try it with the variable ID number instead of the name.  ${var.1.12}  Or whatever number your is...

According to the wiki, it should also work with variable name Substitution variables are available inside custom email definitions in the form ${<variable name>} which would seem to transalte to ${decGarageOpenTime} in your case, I've never used names in the substitutions tho, i've already recently become away of the name form.

Hi MrBill .. using the variable ID number worked!  Thank you.

For completeness I also tested the ${<variable name>}, in my case ${decGarageOpenTime}, but it included the that text in the message instead of the value. 

Will stick with the variable ID.  

Thanks again.
