Start build notification shows question marks instead of variables in build version about tcslackbuildnotifier HOT 3 OPEN

Does this only apply to the "Build Started" notification?

It might be that we have no good way of getting the version information.

Yes, this only applies to "Build started" notification. It appears that variable values are being populated at a later stage and therefore appear as question marks.

I also tried built-in email notifier for the same build and it resolves variables in start build event correctly.

Eek. I wonder how they're doing it
