Couldn’t find any discussion on if this feature will be added, only a empty topic from a few months ago. When selecting another event configuration like navigation, I can select from a list of properties. In barcode scanned context, there seems to be no similar functionality. I would like to be able to pass a view custom property to the barcode scanning event, so I can then write the scanned barcode info to a dynamically built tag (using context data). Is there a way I’m missing or has this feature not been added?
