Assigning attribute to child sample of a pair

I'm running an algorithm on a pair, and (among other things) it generates an output file for both the case and the control samples. But, when I try to assign the output file to self.case_id. I get an error when saving the method config:
Failed at line 1, column 13: :' expected but
.' found
Changing the second '.' to ':' gives an even more cryptic error.
How can I make this work?

@gordon123 , have you tried something like "this.case_sample.my_new_column" ?
The expression errors are often very cryptic - if you actually wrote "self.some_attribute" it was probably complaining (poorly) that you meant "this.some_attribute"
