Description
## Expected Behavior
Most other functions in the pipeline supports selecting a output from the list, but not substring. There should be an option to do so.
## Current Behavior
Currently the substring function only supports direct string.
## Possible Solution
Supporting output list for substring function.
## Context
I'm trying to shorten/truncate log messages ($message.message) that are longer than 100 characters, but I'm currently unable to do so. So adding the ability to select an output from list would be useful.
I was originally trying to substring under Alerts - Custom HTTP Notification (which would make my life much easier rather than doing a whole bunch of work to create a pipeline with rules) because I'm sending the log to other sources.
## Your Environment
