The template that you provide in the "calibredb export" command only affects the filename produced. It has no impact on the metadata contained within the exported KFX file. That is controlled by "Preferences", "Metadata plugboards" in the calibre GUI.

Look at the plugboards settings and see if anything there can explain what you are experiencing. If you want to post what you have set there, I can take a look at it.

If you install the KFX Input plugin you can then view the metadata of KFX files using the calibre CLI command "ebook-meta".
