Calling script with text input gives error and changes to "[object Object]": null

Configuration
1

When I run this script through the run script button:


sequence:
  - action: mqtt.publish
    metadata: {}
    data:
      qos: "1"
      retain: false
      topic: zigbee2mqtt/ir 3v branco quarto/set/ir_code_to_send
      payload: {{ ir_text }}
alias: mqtt publish test power  (Duplicate)
description: ""
fields:
  ir_text:
    selector:
      text: null
    name: ir_text
    required: true

it gives the error:

Failed to perform the action script/mqtt_publish_test_power_duplicate. value should be a string for dictionary value @ data[‘payload’]

and then the script becomes

sequence:
  - action: mqtt.publish
    metadata: {}
    data:
      qos: "1"
      retain: false
      topic: zigbee2mqtt/ir 3v branco quarto/set/ir_code_to_send
      payload:
        "[object Object]": null
alias: mqtt publish test power  (Duplicate)
description: ""
fields:
  ir_text:
    selector:
      text: null
    name: ir_text
    required: true

I dont even have the chance to put the ir_text input. Calling from a button with a text also gives this and changes the script. Why?
