Another (weird) surprise from BigFix In Fixlet Debugger
Q: not disjunction of relevances of fixlets whose (exists match (regex "pp%255fms[0-9][0-9]-(jan|feb|mar|apr|may|jun|jul|aug|sep|oct|nov|dec) monthly update%253a patch policy recuperi") of (values of headers "action-ui-name" of it as lowercase)) of site "actionsite"A: True

glbproject:
values of headers
I wonder if this is down to the fixlet inspector only being available for property evaluation so it may fail to return anything when used as relevance substitution in an action?
fixlet_header | BigFix Developer
Fixlet headers are name:value pairs that can provide important information about the fixlets at any site. These inspectors only work in the context of property evaluation, not Fixlet evaluation.

If I recall correctly, I think they should work within the context of a running action, but you cannot use these in the relevance evaluation of a fixlet or action.
@glbproject , can you tell a bit of the context of what you're trying to do? Are you expecting these action-ui-name headers to match against Fixlets, or Actions?
Yes these do work in the context of a running action.
I built some example queries for testing, ran this in an action, and retrieved results from the client log:
parameter "disjunction"="{not disjunction of relevances of fixlets whose (exists match (regex "pp%255fms[0-9][0-9]-(jan|feb|mar|apr|may|jun|jul|aug|sep|oct|nov|dec) monthly update%253a patch policy recuperi") of (values of headers "action-ui-name" of it as lowercase)) of site "actionsite"}"
