Referencing a Process Property

A process property can be referenced from within an expression. The syntax is [&PropName]. For example:

[&Object Id] like '99-28B1T'

Where:

& indicates a process property, and Object Id is the name of the process property.

The following example illustrates how a process property can be used as a substitution variable within a more complex expression. This example uses an input argument to establish a message body:

The Activity #" + [&Object Id] + ", owned by " + [&First Name]+" "+[&Last Name] + " has passed three days from the Due Date.

Where Object Id, First Name, and Last Name are defined as process properties.
