cannot scaffold controllers using user secrets

[lucamorelli]

I just tried to scaffold a new controller using a connection string handled via User Secrets: the empty string is present in the appsetings.json, the value is stored is the secrets.json, and works at runtime.
If I try to create a new scaffolder I receive the error message that the connection string is incorrect

when I try to scaffold an entity this way

this is the error message I receive
