The runtime expression is defined by the following [ABNF](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5234) syntax

```
expression = ( "$url" | "$method" | "$statusCode" | "$request." source | "$response." source )
source = ( header-reference | query-reference | path-reference | body-reference )
```abnf
expression = ( "$url" / "$method" / "$statusCode" / "$request." source / "$response." source )
source = ( header-reference / query-reference / path-reference / body-reference )

Did I just pick the wrong character here, or is there a difference between | and / ?

I've just checked RFC5234 and section 3.2 gives / as "alternative" but has no references to | or "pipe" or "vertical bar".

header-reference = "header." token
query-reference = "query." name
path-reference = "path." name
body-reference = "body" ["#" fragment]
fragment = a JSON Pointer [RFC 6901](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6901)
name = *( char )
char = as per RFC [7159](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7159#section-7)
token = as per RFC [7230](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7230#section-3.2.6)
```
body-reference = "body" ["#" json-pointer ]
json-pointer = *( "/" reference-token )
reference-token = *( unescaped / escaped )
unescaped = %x00-2E / %x30-7D / %x7F-10FFFF
; %x2F ('/') and %x7E ('~') are excluded from 'unescaped'
escaped = "~" ( "0" / "1" )
; representing '~' and '/', respectively
name = *( CHAR )
token = 1*tchar
tchar = "!" / "#" / "$" / "%" / "&" / "'" / "*" / "+" / "-" / "." /
"^" / "_" / "`" / "|" / "~" / DIGIT / ALPHA
```

Here, `json-pointer` is taken from [RFC 6901](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6901), `char` from [RFC 7159](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7159#section-7) and `token` from [RFC 7230](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7230#section-3.2.6).

The `name` identifier is case-sensitive, whereas `token` is not.
