Try uuid_getvar and save what it returns and pass it to the next command.

Eg: uuid_getvar 2428fa31-dbfc-4d95-a2bb-a3b44f13315c recordings_dir

I'm using javascript to trigger the conference API to record when the moderator joins.

apiExecute("conference",argv[0] + " recording start $${recordings_dir}/conf-"+argv[0]+"/${strftime(%Y-%m-%d-%H-%M)}.mp3");

Those variables should be automatically expanded by FS, just like if it was used in the dialplan?

But it seems they are being treated literally:

2020-05-07 19:25:36.609713 [ERR] mod_shout.c:893 Error opening $${recordings_dir}/conf-test/${strftime(%Y-%m-%d-%H-%M)}.mp3
2020-05-07 19:25:36.609713 [ERR] conference_record.c:277 Error Opening File [$${recordings_dir}/conf-test/${strftime(%Y-%m-%d-%H-%M)}.mp3]

Ideas?
Should I expand them myself? I was wondering about wrapping it in an eval, but that would probably have the same issue. So running an API to get the results of an eval first...

Thanks,
