I’ve getting the new error “template\_ids must be an array of strings“. After clicking the submit button([Ego4D Dataset](https://ego4ddataset.com/ego4d-license/)), I got “template\_ids must be an array of strings” Error. Please let me know how should I handle this error. (I am guessing there would be some backend issues.)

Thank you for your help!
