Liquid settings object does not contain app-embed.liquid settings

I have a theme extension with an app-embed.liquid file that sets some variables for the app. However, when I try to access those variables through the settings liquid object, it returns nothing. The app embed is on and there are values in the setting.

In the example below, the console.log returns “”. Additionally, trying to access this variable in one of my app blocks also returns the same.

app-embed.liquid

<script>console.log("{{settings.amploy_main_color}}")</script>
{% schema %}
{
  "name": "Amplify Loyalty",
  "target": "body",
  "javascript": "amplify-functionality.js",
  "settings": [
    {
      "type": "color",
      "id": "amploy_main_color",
      "label": "Main Color",
      "default": "#C68F38"
    }
  ]
}
