Notification Screenshot Custom URL

we're examining the new functionality of attaching screenshots to emails sent by PI Notifications. The problem we're having is that we would like to use an attribute value for the URL. This does not seem to be possible. In the configuration, only a base URL and parameters can be entered. Parameter values can be based on attribute values, but not an entire URL. We would like to have the attribute value used as the URL from which to include a screenshot. Any solution to our problem?

    This is possible, but you have to do a few steps because PSE only offers the screenshot open when it knows the attribute is supposed to give a URI by checking for the URI Builder data reference. To work around it, switch the data reference to URI builder, then in the message configuration, drag in the URL item under the attribute and select "Screenshot" from the drop down. Then you can go back and change the attribute's data reference back to whatever you want. This is in some way already supported, however it is too hard to find for many users, so we can keep this suggestion for reference.
