Hello,

i'm trying to use the global account variables:

username > ${global_account.username} as tenantID

password > ${global_account.password} as token ID

to build dynamically the REST URL, but seems that the global variables content is not filled

2023-09-13 14:51:12,726 - test_REST_API - [ERROR] - [test] HTTPError reason=HTTP Error Invalid URL '{{global_account.username}}/api/v2/entities?entitySelector=type("{{text1}}"),toRelationships.isClusterOfCai(type(KUBERNETES_CLUSTER),entityId("KUBERNETES_CLUSTER-846D9F2054A407A0"))&pageSize=4000&from=-30m&fields=toRelationships.isNamespaceOfCai,fromRelationships.isInstanceOf': No scheme supplied.

Perhaps you meant http://{{global_account.username}}/api/v2/entities?entitySelector=type("{{text1}}"),toRelationships.isClusterOfCai(type(KUBERNETES_CLUSTER),entityId("KUBERNETES_CLUSTER-846D9F2054A407A0"))&pageSize=4000&from=-30m&fields=toRelationships.isNamespaceOfCai,fromRelationships.isInstanceOf? when sending request to url={{global_account.username}}/api/v2/entities?entitySelector=type("{{text1}}"),toRelationships.isClusterOfCai(type(KUBERNETES_CLUSTER),entityId("KUBERNETES_CLUSTER-846D9F2054A407A0"))&pageSize=4000&from=-30m&fields=toRelationships.isNamespaceOfCai,fromRelationships.isInstanceOf method=GET
Traceback (most recent call last):

The ${global_account.username} has been tested with and without the prefix https://
