When referencing the table foobar within the same file using its name, the org-table-get-remote-range function works correctly. However, when attempting to reference the same table from another file using a link generated by M-x org-store-link and M-x org-insert-link, an error message “Can’t find remote table” is triggered. What is the right way to do it?

PS: replacing ~by an absolute path does not solve the problem.

config.org:

#+name: foobar
| foo | hello |
| bar | world |

#+header: :results value
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
   (org-table-get-remote-range "foobar" (format "@1$%d..@>$%d" 1 1))
#+end_src

#+RESULTS:
| foo | bar |

other.org

#+header: :results value
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
   (org-table-get-remote-range "file:~/.emacs.d/config.org::foobar" (format "@1$%d..@>$%d" 1 1))
#+end_src
