Explainability message templates store explanation messages, and can be referenced in an expression set version step to explain the step’s result. You can use expression set message tokens in your message templates as placeholders for expression set version resources. Rule designers can then map the tokens to the resources from the expression set version where the template is used. When the expression set runs, the explanations dynamically show the values of the mapped resources.
