Issue/Introduction

When using the value of $(_.soe.item_text) as a name for the tickets (or set the name with the service option name) but when we set in the Default Request Name configuration we get -1 as the name and error in logs:

WARN [ActiveMQ Session Task-13] [CRequest] Error evaluting request name expression: $(_.soe.item_text)
WARN [ActiveMQ Session Task-13] [CRequest] Error evaluting request name expression: $(_.soe.item_text)

WARN [ActiveMQ Session Task-13] [CRequest] Error evaluting request name expression: $(_.soe.item_text)

Cause

cannot expose the $(_.soe.item_text) as request name

Environment

Service Catalog 14.1 and later

Resolution

We cannot expose the $(_.soe.item_text) as request name, It is not possible to use. This would be an idea/enhancement request.  To submit the idea:
