How to concatenate constant string with jsonpath












0















I have AWS step machine and one of the step is used to notify failure using SNS service. I want to select some metadata from input json into outgoing message. So i am trying to concatenate constant string with jsonpath like below



"Notify Failure": {
"Type": "Task",
"Resource": "arn:aws:states:::sns:publish",
"Parameters": {
"Message.$": "A job submitted through Step Functions failed for document id $.document_id",
"Subject":"Job failed",
"TopicArn": "arn:aws:sns:us-west-2:xxxxxxx:xxxxxxxx"
},
"End": true
}


where document_id is one of the property in input json



However when i try save state machine defination i get error




There is a problem with your ASL definition, please review it and try
again The value for the field 'Message.$' must be a valid JSONPath

          As the message suggest you need to provide a valid JSONPath.



          "Message.$": "$.document_id"



          You cannot use any string interpolation as it invalidates the JSONPath format. You will need to construct the message in the preceding state.

          • Even in the preceding state how would you do that if I cannot cancatinate. And creating lambda just for concatenation is too much

          • the state that set $.document_id needs to set full string.
