sendemail command - naming convention - attachment

Hello everyone, 

I would like to ask you for an assistance if possible. Is there a way how to rename an attachment when used a sendemail command within MAP (loop)?

Below simple command sends out two emails, however each attachment matches this naming convention = unknown-YYYY-MM-DD.

Hi @Kopcisko 

Unfortunately you can only set the filename when triggering from a alert action or from a scheduled search.
