Apigee: Using environment name to extract variable

I have set up a custom variable in my developer app called sandbox.app_id so I can have different ids for different applications.

I am using the verify api key policy and this populate the verifyapikey.* variables.

I want an ExtractVariable policy similar to below:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<ExtractVariables async="false" continueOnError="false" enabled="true" name="Extract-TLRG-App-ID">
    <DisplayName>Extract TLRG App ID</DisplayName>
    <FaultRules/>
    <Properties/>
    <Variable name="app_id">verifyapikey.verify-api-key.{environment.name}.app_id</Variable>
    <IgnoreUnresolvedVariables>true</IgnoreUnresolvedVariables>
    <VariablePrefix>apigee</VariablePrefix>
</ExtractVariables>

Is this possible, or will I have to resort to javascript?

Basically you are trying to access custom application attributes from your extract variable policy. So you need to place this extract variable policy after your verify api key policy. A verify api key policy would load all the application attributes as flow variables for a valid key. You may not see the custom attributes as variables in the debug view. However correct way to access the variables is to use this naming format below:

verifyapikey.{your_policy_name}.app.{custom_attribute_name}

Note that the verify api key policy is mandatory, otherwise the application associated with the API call can not be identified.
