Using Custom Property in HTTP Monitor

I've searched the Thwack and haven't found the answer, so apologies if this is a dupe question.

I have defined a custom property for our nodes "MachineName". I would like to use it in the URL of an HTTP monitor. I thought the URL field should then be:

http://${IP}:${PORT}/${MachineName}

However, the ${MachineName} is not being replaced with the custom property in the HTTP call. Is there a way to do this I'm not seeing?

I would suspect it is because that variable is part of a different table.

Try ${Nodes.MachineName}

That makes sense. Good thought, but it didn't work.

Not sure if this will work, but you might also try ${Node.MachineName}. There are some places where that works where you would expect the usual table name of Nodes should work...

No luck I called support and they didn't understand what I wanted.
