Variables in CLI Scripts

[Uwe_Sommerfeld]

Hi all are there any usable parameters / variables in CLI scripts? Like $HOSTNAME is there a list available?

I´ve tried %%host%% and %%hostname%% with no luck; I´m trying to save a timestamp-and-hostname log file script; in the meantime I´ll use %%date%% %%time%% to add the timestamp and manually add the hostname (and maybe current fortiOS version of the device at the time of the backup).

Regards!

Hi @csecmx For CLI Script variable of the Hostname use %%devname%%.

Hi @Sam_FTNT We have some news about what's in thread?, since apparently the command "%%devname%%" fails to compile correctly.

Hello, all.  I want to use system variables in my scripts, but none of the ones like %%date%%, %%hostname%%, or %%dev.id%% work.  Any word on host to grab variables like dates, hostnames, device serials, etc?
