Event Log Monitor - EventData (Message)

I have an Alert that triggers when a Windows Event Log Monitor matches a specific Event ID is found in the Application log.
The issue I am having is finding the variable name to use to pull in the EventData into the alert email body.

In this case I would like to add "This is a Test 4" into the email body from the EventData.

possibly this in the alert email body ${N=SwisEntity;M=ComponentAlert.ComponentName}

The event message is typically this variable (using a component alert):
${N=SwisEntity;M=ComponentAlert.WindowsEventMessages}

Not sure if EventData field is actually picked up by the windows event monitor or not. If its not, you might need to use a PowerShell script instead and then write eventdata to the script message output, and get it in the email that way.
