Automation: create Confluence page out of Jira with individual name

Hi there, I hope you can help me:

I have built an automation that creates a Confluence page through a manual trigger from Jira. However, currently, this new Confluence page only receives the page name, which is hard-coded as the title in the ‘Create page in Confluence’ automation template.

When I trigger the automation, I am prompted to enter a page name, but as far as I can see it is not used anywhere.

As a result, I have to manually change the page title of the newly created Confluence page afterward. If I don’t do this, I cannot create a new page because it would have the same title as the first page.

I tried using smart values like page.title or page.name, but this doesn't work and I receive errors. And yes I know I could add a smart value for the date, but the title of this kind of page always is very individual. 

In best case I would like using what I am requested to enter in the field "page name" when I start the automation. How can I do this?

If I test it myself, it's working as expected. My assumption is that while the Page Name is being asked for after manually triggering the automation, the value is indeed not being used correctly.
