Issue Calling Variable

Question

I created a variable (softwareVersion) with the syntax: substring(issue.summary, indexOf("Version ") + 7, indexOf(" ", indexOf("Version ") + 7))

Within the same rule, when I attempt to create a new issue with the variable as the summary title, it displays the whole substring... syntax, not the actual value
