List of Variables for Substitution

Hi,

I noticed that there isn't much help documentation around variables for substitution for messages in Totara LMS. eg. %programfullname%, %fullname%, etc

Can someone provide a list of the variables that can be substituted and in which messages they will work?

Thanks,

-Ira

Anyone know if user specific details can be substituted the same way in system messages?

eg. %username%, %password%, etc
