I am trying to get a message to work in Alerts and Actions. I am using Uptime using icmp for internal servers. How do it get the Message to display the URL that is detected as down?  
I have looked for basic information about what all the pre defiened variables shows but i haven't found it anywhere.

Hi @Ej_Eric_H

This isn't possible atm, good news is that you will be able to do this in upcoming 7.10 release. We have already implemented the feature.
