The description of the instance in the alert, as defined by Active Discovery or as manually set on the Instances tab of the Resource page. If not available, “null” is returned.

When I said “not set” I meant empty. The point is the unconditional token substitution system can not deal with different results (like an empty result) effectively. Been an issue for years, just one more “lack of core system improvements” issue.
