GitLab is not able to accept the dynamic variable when it is configured for job name or for stage name while running pipeline manually.

suppose i have 2 stages, i am performing jobs for both the stages for 2 environment. But i have used the stages and job name as variable like. eg

stages:

• Deploy_$APPENV

deploy_on_APPENV_app: stage: Deploy\_APPENV

now I am assigning enviroment(like mnt or ete) for "APPENV" while executing pipeline manually. It takes the variable value, but it does not replace APPENV with variable value.please check the attachment

Workaround

Inputs can be used instead of environment variables (and environment variables can be used to populate inputs). See #28734 (comment 1710268361)
