How can you use a text_input_row value in a markdown card?

I’m trying to use an input box to display text in a markdown card. I’m getting “unknown” even after putting text in the field. What am I doing wrong?

type: custom:layout-card
layout_type: custom:grid-layout
layout:
  grid-template-columns: 100%
cards:
  - type: heading
    heading: my filter
  - type: custom:text-input-row
    entity: input_text.myFilter
    name: myFilter
  - type: markdown
    content: |
      {{ states('input_text.myFilter') }}
column_span: 4

There is no capital letters in entity IDs.

I changed all the capital letters to lowercase, same result.

Find the entity in developer tools and make sure the spelling is correct.
Try the code in developer tools → templates and see what that gives you.

{{ states('input_text.myfilter') }}
