How to make a query that will label an inline roll?

Hey yall! Very new to making macros so please be nice. I'm trying to make a macro for basic skill tests in Shadowrun 5E.  I'm stuck on how to make a query that defines the inline label for the roll. I.E. when the player clicks the macro they will input their dice pool, modifiers, and which skill they are rolling.  I've gotten the rolling/math part working but I can't figure out how to query for the label. [[((?{Ranks|0}+?{Attribute|1}+?{Modifiers|0})d6>5)]] Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Can you elaborate on what exactly you're trying to do? Querying an inline label should be as simple as placing the query within single square brackets in the inline roll, but I'm not sure if that's what you're after.

Hope that clarifies well enough :)

Thank you so much. That worked perfectly. The {{name=?{skill name}} with the template was the part that was eluding me.  You're a hero <3
