APM External Logon Server URI formulation

I would like to formulate the URI based on a session variable that I capture. For instance - https://externalpage.company.code/?token=generated_string&service=something

 

I tried a multitude of variable combinations but it seems the field is a looking for a static string only. Any other ways I could get around this?

    I get this exception which hopefully means i just need to enter my session variable correctly in the VPE 0107120a:3: The external URI (session.server.network.name) must be a HTTP(S) absolute URI or session variable

    Got it to work - documentation was well worth the read

    I can reference it using %{sessionvar}

     

    Great stuff :)
