I recently updated Org-roam, and now :id: %(downcase "${id}") in my capture template isn’t working anymore, instead it does ‘ID’ upper-case. Why would the new update be doing this? How would I fix it?

Sounds like a bug introduced in recent changes to capture. I’d suggest to create an issue in the GitHub project.
