Says Column Doesn't Exist - But it Does

I have a board that has an existing Subitems column. I wanted to add an automation that’ll create a Subitem when an item is moved to the board, but when I test it to make sure it works, the automation turns itself off and says, “The Subitems column no longer exits in this board. Add a Subitem column in order to activate this automation.”

But I can’t add a Subitems column because it tells me one already exists …
I would just delete the current subitems column and add a new one, but I have a lot of Subitems in that column that I do not want to lose.

How do I solve this paradox?

Hi @JWomack

Welcome to the monday.com community!

I just tried testing it on my end with the following automation and it seems to work on my end.
