Problem with creating a prompt template function that calls a native function

[skarygia-te]

Hello. I am trying to create a prompt template function that includes a call to a native function. The skprompt.txt file is looking like this:

prompt = """You are asked to retrieve information about a specific subject.
Infer the subject from the user {{$input}}.

Data: {{DataPlugin.get_data '24h'}}

Based on the data present to the user the ones that are relevant to the requested subject:

• mention the number of relevant ......
• for the latest data, mention the ....

"""

Then I am attaching the template function and the plugin to a kernel using:

kernel.add_plugin(
        DataPlugin(),
        plugin_name="DataPlugin",
    )

plugins_directory = "...."
kernel.add_plugin(parent_directory=plugins_directory, plugin_name="get_information_subject")

I am using python and the BedrockChatCompletion service for the kernel with auto function execution. The kernel is then used to create an agent.

When I am running the code the agent (when asked to retrieve information about sth) tries to run the template function "get_information_subject" but then either the DataPlugin.get_data function is run but the result is not embedded properly in the prompt, or it is not run at all and the LLM hallucinates an answer. Am I missing something? Is there sth wrong with my template or some parameter I need to set? Also, in the correct execution of the above function, am I supposed to see the function call to DataPlugin.get_data as a function call and result in the chat history or not?
