    Using a Find My Phone profile I created, using the GetFormattedDate task, I am able to take a picture w/ rear and front cameras while also saving the file using the currentdate/Time Sequence naming series.
    So, my file will be something like
    %photobombCurrent = year.m.d.hrs.min.001 (not .jpg)
    year.m.d.hrs.min.001.jpg
    year.m.d.hrs.min.002.jpg


    --or at the general time of this post:
    2017.12.31.212.49.001.jpg
    2017.12.31.212.49.001.jpg


    I'm wondering how to utilize the new variable %photobombCurrent and access that in an AutoTools Dialog.
    how would I append that .jpg to the end of that variable for AutoTools to associate w/ it?
    Additionally, w/ this variable, I'd like to send a join push to the triggered device and so on.

    Is there anything wrong with just using the variable in AutoTools? :) That should work directly...
