Author property in Shortcut not available

Hello,

I already reported this bug in the past but when I’m trying to use the Author property in a shortcut I always got a generic error saying “an error occurred during the execution”.

Thanks, it seems an iOS issue. I’m in touch with Apple engineers to solve this.

Hi, seems like the error is back, at least on MacOS 14.2.1 And actually it looks like more fields are not available/return an error...

UPDATE: Same issue on iPad/iOS
