Port Template Variable string for LLDP information

Is there a variable sting that can be used with Port Templates to populate the Port-name with the LLDP name?

Could you please help us with more details about the requirement ?
Are you looking for port name and LLDP detail display in switch output or in a different tool ? If yes could you please help us with tool you are trying to display it on ? And is your concern related to template to be used on that tool ?
Could you please help us with switch model and firmware version on the switch ?

I have port templates set up or access point ports, I'm wondering if there is a way to take the LLDP information from the port having the template applied and then change the port-name (description) of the port to include the the name from the LLDP device, say the AP name is HS-2-12.
For instance:
The template applies the required vlan's and other port configuration, then reads the LLDP info and applies the AP name to the port-name.
