Display file name as column

I am trying to add a file name column to Calibre.
I have tried various ideas and have added a customn column but currently this added column says: format_filename: unknown function.
I must be missing something.
Thank-you.

AFAICT there is no 'format_filename' function, see ==>> Template function reference

There is a Plugin GetFileName that can fill that column in WHILE ADDING (only). Be sure the column has the correct type per the PI instructions
