Hi,

So I followed this article: https://support.atlassian.com/bitbucket-cloud/docs/share-pipelines-configurations/ and also checked out this question https://community.atlassian.com/forums/Bitbucket-questions/Shared-Pipeline-error/qaq-p/2970688

I basically have a repository called `shared-pipelines` with a file `shared-pipelines.yml`. The content is

export: true
definitions:
  pipelines:
    share-pipeline-2:
      - step:
          name: "hello world"
          script:
            - echo hello
in my project I have this file
definitions:
  imports:
    shared-pipelines-custom: shared-pipelines:master:.bitbucket/shared-pipelines.yml

pipelines:
  branches:
    'my-feature-branch':
      - import: share-pipeline-2@shared-pipelines-custom

The pipeline is running on push but always fails with "Step is empty, null, or missing.". I have premium bitbucket and indentation also looks good to me
Does someone has an idea?
