Visuals with default title is not returned in PBIX Layout file.

I have created two visuals, one with a default title and the other with a custom title.

The below outputs are from the PBIX layout file, where I am only able to fetch the title of visuals where I assigned a custom value. FOr visual with auto-generated title, we are not getting titles in the pbix layout response.



Sample response of the AutoFilled Title visual: We are not getting the title as part of the response.
