M1 Mac mini not detecting monitor’s native resolution.

I got a portable 2K monitor for my m1, but my m1 won’t detect it as a 2K monitor: only 1080. I’ve tried using both the HDMI cable and the USBC cable and get the same result. It detects fine on both my Windows machine and on the previous generation iMac.
