Is it possible to use variables in the artifacts section of a step in the pipelines.yml file?

Question

We have a custom pipeline with a "Project" variable defined.   Using the variable works fine in the script section, but doesn't appear to work in the artifacts section.

- step: build-test-apprevision
name: Build, Test, Create App Revision
script:
- bash ./gradlew :$Project:createAppRevision
artifacts:
- $Project/build/artifacts/$Project-apprevision

Am i doing something wrong or is this not possible?

bitbucket suggests, in a completely non-patronising way, the use of premium dynamic pipelines to solve this

BCLOUD-21666

"We're extremely excited to announce the GA release of a really powerful feature in Bitbucket Pipelines called Dynamic Pipelines. ......

One of the MANY things Dynamic Pipelines solves is the ability to inject variables into things like artefacts etc."

following @Felipe Jaekel  issue, the only way I found to handle this behavior is to specify into the artifacts section something like "*.json" and then to recalculate the filename in each following steps. It is tricky and clunky but it could works.

Tried to work with repository variables in condition.changesets.includePaths and it does not seem to work. Same thing with artifacts, of course.

It's really sad...
