LabKey Server supports a number of substitutions that can be used with transformation scripts. These substitutions work both on the command-line being used to invoke the script (configured in the Views and Scripting section of the Admin Console), and in the text of transformation scripts themselves. See Transform Scripts for a description of how to use this syntax.
