Wondering if there is a way to put template text on a button? I want the button to say “See PERSON Details” where the person is different every time. Seems like a simple ask, but it looks like the button label is not dynamic.

You can only put typed in text as a button label. I’ll change this post to a feature request. I have wanted to do what you are asking in a few instances myself. It would be a valuable feature
