The bug

Hello,

I am trying to use the {{album}} variable in the file name from the Storage Template when backing up files from a mobile device.

However, when the file is uploaded, the file name is proceeded by a '.' and the {{album}} is blank:

From the mobile device:

I've tried running the Storage Migration Job (as written in the instructions) both before and after the file upload, but the {{album}} variable is never populated.
