parcel dynamic import with variable not working

Question

I am trying to import a json config file depending on a variable using dynamic import from ES6 and using the bundler parcel.

If I use it with a hardcode string it works.

async function import() {
    const config = await import('./configuration.json');
    console.log(config);
}

But if I use it with the string in a variable it doesn't work

async function import() {
    const path = './configuration.json';
    const config = await import(path);
    console.log(config);
}

And it throws me the following error

Uncaught (in promise) Error: Cannot find module './configuration.json'
