Can't change defaultList to grouped reminders list #127

Hi, this is such a great workflow (thank you for making it!) but I have one problem. I've tried to no avail to change the defaultList variable in the arg/vars node of the workflow. I put in next to the variable the name of the list I want to use "Next," and it still keeps saving the reminder to the default list I have in the Reminders app (which I need to keep as the in-app default for independent reasons). Is there a special format that I should be using? I also tried Reminders.Next, but that didn't help. Thanks!

As an update, I realized that my problem is more specific. I can change the default list if the list I want is outside of a reminders list group. But the target list I want IS in a group and I need to leave it there. Is there any way to change the defaultList variable to a list within a list group? Or does anyone know what the name would be for a grouped list? E.g., if the group is Group and the targeted list within it is ListOne, would the name be something like Group->ListOne or Group.ListOne? I have tried these and they don't work--but just to give a sense of what I'm looking for. Thanks again.

Thanks for this. I think this is a somewhat broader problem than just defaultList. I have a grocery list called "Safeway" under a group called "shopping," and something like "r corn @ Safeway" says, "No list called Safeway was found in Reminders." I use this one enough that I'm going to ungroup it, but I imagine that others will run into this. Also, I can confirm that ungrouping does solve it for me.
