[Bug] globalNamespaceID specified, but not generated in the toc data of _site/api/index.html

[SONIC3D]

Version docfx-win-x64-v2.71.1(May also apply to other version)

Describe the bug Specify the following metadata settings:

"globalNamespaceId": "Global"
"dest": "api"

In the api directory, classed in global namespace generated correct yaml in "Global." prefix. But when I browse the result site, the TOC shows no "Global" tree node. If I type any class name in global namespace into the TOC filter text box, a tree node with no name will be displayed as the parent node of my filtered class.

Look into the html output files in directory "_site", the The name attribute and the display text of this node is empty in "api/index,html" and "api/toc,html". And for the toc.json, it shows null for its name.

We are seeing this too (DocFX 2.70.0).

Just wanted to add that I'm seeing this too, on docfx 2.61.0. What seems to be happening, is that docs/api/toc.yml is being generated as follows:

- uid: Global
  name: ''
  items:
  - ...
- uid: Other.Namespace
   name: 'Other.Namespace'
   items:
   - ...

When the actual website is generated from this .yml file, the associated .html file doesn't have the correct name for the Global namespace:

<div class="sidetoc">
      <div class="toc" id="toc">

          <ul class="nav level1">
                <li>
                    <span class="expand-stub"></span>
                    <a href="Global.html" name="" title=""></a>

Note that the last line there should be <a href="Global.html" name="" title="Global">Global</a>.
