Fortimanager: is it possible to nest meta variables?

As the subject says. (Running 7.6 on the manager btw)

Is it possible to nest a metavariable. Inside another metavariable?

Example: new metavariable $(BGP_LOCAL) default value is now 10.$(site.ID).$(VLAN_USERS).0/24

$(site_ID) and $(VLAN_USERS) in this case is a previous defined metavariable which is normalized to a specific gate or defined subnet etc.

Thanks.

Short answer: NO.

Explanation:
Fields that support metadata variables are identified with a metadata variable magnifying glass icon.

Typing $ into an object's field where metadata variables are supported will display the metadata variables available for selection in the ADOM.
