Dynamic distribution output file name
Currently, all visible dimensions in the Dynamic Distribution table are included in the output file name also when using the parameter for Batch element $b. It would be helpful to have the option to exclude certain dimensions - such as the one used for the Dynamic Distribution table Delivery email.
Additionally, adding the option to include dynamic content - such as criteria - in the file name, subject or message would make the output more meaningful and relevant to the recipient.

very important feature
This would be an extremely valuable feature!
Excluding such dimensions — while allowing dynamic content like criteria to be added to file names, subjects, or messages — would not only make reports more relevant, but also significantly improve clarity for end users.
This is particularly important when distributing reports to people outside the organization. Personalization is critical in all external communication, and the lack of this flexibility creates unnecessary friction and reduces the professional impact of the reports.
Adding this feature would therefore open up much broader use cases for Dynamic Distribution, making it far more effective in real-world reporting workflows.
When using the dynamic distribution function to send emails to multiple email recipient lists, the entire list of all email addresses appears in the name of the output file - even without the $b parameter. This causes an error in our email system because the file name is too long to open the file. Furthermore, it is not intended that all recipients should be able to see the recipient list.
