The shorthand notation supports retrieval precedence to limit the exposure of underlying workflow-tokens and runtime-arguments to pipeline operators. The "functionTime" macro function uses the logical start time of a run to perform the substitution. This is an example of a macro function that is not just a key-value lookup but allows for extra logic to be performed before a value is returned. For now, the implementation will only support the following macro functions: runtime-arguments. Once the secure store API is available, it will also support secure store. In the future, we can see if we will allow developers to create custom macro functions (similar to functionTime(...)).

Notes:

• For now, we will not support The current implementation for macro substitution supports recursive expansion of macros. That is, if a macro such as ${address} expands to ${hostname}:${port}, then ${hostname} and ${port} will not be evaluated. We will document this at first.We can expand the functionality later to recursively expand macros.In the case of a macro ${key} expanding to ${key}, we can implement a maximum depth of recursionHowever, this can lead to an infinite loop from circular macros, so we can add a maximum depth for expansion.
