I am an absolute app noob, most of this stuff is way over my head, so please bear with me if I am misunderstanding something.
I am trying to fill an attribute "Date and time" field with the current Application Date and time using the Attribute Importer app.
Whatever I try, I do not get the attribute field filled.
To illustrate my problem I defined a super simple Attribute set called "Test" consisting of just one field called "Date and time", being of the "Date and time" data type (see screenshot).
I set up the importer app to use the {Application.DateTime} variable to fill the target attribute (see screenshot).
When I select an image, call up the app and click "Run import" it tells me that it processed the file but the Attribute field of the selected image remains empty.
I don't know if this is a bug or just misunderstanding / misuse from my side.
Any guidance will be highly appreciated.

FWIW, I am using IMatch 2018.8.8

The Attribute import is managed by IMWS. It currently does not support IMatch Application variables. Only {File....} variables.
This is a limitation. I may look into this for a future version of IMatch.
The list of supported variables is returned by the v1/variables/list endpoint.
Thanks Mario, that explains.
I can work around it, so no big problem.
I have enhanced the IMWS embedded in IMatch to support IMatch application variables {Application.*}.
Included in the next regular release.
It has been said before, I can only repeat: your support is incredible!
Thank you very much for this quick implementation, I am looking forward to the next release.
This was relatively easy to do and I'm working at IMWS right now anyway.
All endpoints working with variables will benefit from that when used from IMatch apps.
