The renaming input selector uses # instead of $ to allow combinations with workflow parameters.
So, in your case, #{input} should work. There are also options (basename, upper, lower) that you can use to format the text. So, #{input | upper} would use the input name but ensure that it was all uppercase.

Hi, I have workflows where I would like to rename the item at each step. The reason for this to have a proper naming. What I did is to use the renaming option in the workflow editor. I specified the 'New output name:' to ${input} This does not work. Is there any variable which works or is there a easy way in doing this? Any help or hint is appreciated.
Cheers Manuel
