This article explains how to fix the same pageId, which is used under certain circumstances using @pageId@.

Error message

When we run an action is run and have has a file that contains copyPage as the first action and runFromPageList with modifyPage as the second action, we notice that the replacement variable @pageId@ of the second action runFromPageList is taking only the page id from the first action copyPage instead of iterating through all the pages in the space.
