Shortcuts to open Apple Notes folders not working on iPad

On my iPhone, running iOS27, I’ve created some shortcuts in the Shortcuts app to open a specific folder in Apple Notes. The shortcuts are run from links in Apple Notes. They work fine.

However, when I go to run the same shortcuts that are now synced to the Shortcuts app on my iPad, running iPadOS27, they don’t work.

They don’t work, as in on iPhone, Apple Notes displays the notes in the asked for folder, but on the iPad it defaults to All iCloud, displaying the note containing the shortcut link(s).

The above is also true if I run the shortcuts directly in the Shortcuts app on the respective devices.

Please tell me that I don’t have to create separate shortcuts on each device to access what is ostensibly the same data source.
