Trying to get smart values from Form fields for email notifications

Hi, 

I've created an automation (still in testing) to pull values from form fields, however it doesn't appear to be doing what it should based on the documentation: https://support.atlassian.com/jira-service-management-cloud/docs/access-smart-values-for-forms-and-form-fields/#Retrieve-form-fields-with-smart-values

Here is what I got so far:

My Rule:

My Form:

My audit log results:

I'm curious what I'm doing wrong here. Can someone please lend a hand?

 

Thanks!!!

Hi! You seem to be missing the "Field Key" value for the "Submitter Name" field in your form.

As mentioned here, you’ll need to know both the field type and the field key which acts as the unique identifier of a field in a form.

Ah, thank you. I'll give that a go. I thought that it was only used for actual exports and not automations.

Ok so I've tried that. It didn't make any difference when I tried to run it again. The exact same error came up.
