Special notification template variables

Hi,
Can I define the Special notification template variables by myself?

For example, I want to add a variable "history", and assign a value general by a project's step to it, then add the ${history} to notification template, so that I can see the value I want from email.

Hi,

You can reference environment variables (ones defined by you as well as standard system variables) in notification templates, as long as you use the ${VAR} syntax.

You can also include register variables for a project in notification templates.

How about the use of the "From" field. Leaving the field blank will send email from "Build Forge".

We would like to plug in $BF_USER_EMAIL, since we want the email to be sent from the user executing the build forge project.

However, our attempt at putting in a Build forge variable doesn't work.

thank you,
