    Hi Jon,

     

    Thank you for your post!

    Note that in the screenshot parameters with the same names as global properties are not overridden. Do you have the "Enable override" option checked for Global Properties? If it is selected the property expansion works fine for me in all cases. If it isn't selected, properties are not overridden if I use this template: ${Global Property}.

     

    You can declare global properties as:

    ${#Global#Global Property}

    or

    ${Global Property}

    Please refer to the Property Expansion article.

     

     So, you need to use the first template or select the "Enable override" option.
