Add a configuration specific property to all files in a folder

I've successfully used SW Task Scheduler to add custom properties to many files, but how can I add a configuration specific property to ALL configurations?

I want to add the property "DrawingNumber" with value $PRP:"SW-File Name"-$PRP:"Configuration Name"

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

The resources I've found are out of date/ have broken links or the macros haven't worked for me:

Correct Answer

To answer my own question just in case someone else needs to do this:

 

Download: #TASK

Task: Custom Properties Manager

Added files/folders

Click "Configurations" toggle in bottom right of Tasks box

Fill in proper Arguments

Run Job (bottom right corner)

 

Note: Must have right-access to files.
