I don't think you could put an attribute in there directly - you'd need to use the FME-TCL option to return it; in this case FME_GetAttribute <attributeName>
So experiment with something like... FME_LogMessage fme_inform (FME_GetAttribute message) I assume you can nest these functions in this way. Again check out @Tcl2 in the FME Functions + Factories manual (in Workbench Help) for other functions like this and for the possibility of a good example.
