Accessing Catalog item variable in Notification message

[kailashthiyagar]

I m using "Notifications" in my catalog item workflow. I m trying to add the variable which i selected in my catalog item like the below one but it doesnt work...

${request.variables.select_the_macro}

Also how to add link to an external catalog item from the notification message....

assuming your notification is on the requested item table.. and you are using oob catalog items... try using

${current.variables.variable_name}

And in addition, if i want to make call to the service now table, is it possible, with the variable values?

ok need a little clarification are you talking about the requested item <the item record that was created> or to the catalog item <so they can order a new one>
