Shortcut to open Pages document is not using the password provided in the shortcut but instead asking me for it.

I had created a shortcut that opened a Pages document with a password without me needing to enter it on the previous macOs system Tahoe. I just updated to Golden Gate and now the Shortcut I created asks for the password when it didn't before.

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 27.0

I have a password protected Pages v15.3.1 document. With that specific Pages document selected in the Finder, I can run the following Shortcut (with the provided password), and Pages opens the selected document without prompting for that password.

Tested: macOS 27.0 (released)
