Unable to find any Slides within the Google Slides app on a shared drive

We need to duplicate a Google Slides template when the automation is triggered.

 

It works perfectly on my personal drive. When (trigger) > “Create Presentation From Template in Google Slides”.

 

It appears that the Google Slides app cannot find any Slides within a shared drive.

 

Using the Google Drive app to find a file, it’s able to successfully find the Google Slides file within the Shared Drive.

 

Then, using the Find value in a Google Drive app step to copy the file, the error thrown says it can’t find the document (ID) despite the previous step, using the same app, successfully finding the document. 

 

Is there a step that I’m missing or is there not a way to duplicate a file within a shared drive?
