This is exactly what property mappings are for. The required inputs for the substituting template are obtained from the property values of the substituted node.

Subject: [tosca] Substitution Inputs
Hello ad-hoc folk,
In our discussion today about substitution mappings I forgot to mention a gaping hole in the spec:
what if the substituted topology template has required inputs? There is no standard way in TOSCA to specify them.
In Turandot, since I am using policies anyway (the directives are wholly insufficient), I use a
custom policy property for this feature.
