It was the bot’s idea. 
I would think it’s a very common use case for real-world artifacts. I have a financial analysis artifact that I want to run against many investments. The artifact pulls the performance data from an API, using the JWT to identify which investment. Making many different artifacts, each with a different hardcoded JWT, is a non-starter.
Not to push my luck, but if I could also get the user id and topic id in the artifact, that would open up a lot more applications.
