What is wrong with my summoning command in minecraft?

Question

I am trying to summon a fire charge with a command block with this:

/summon small_fireball ~ ~1 ~

But, I am getting Invalid command syntax

I have also tried smallfireball and simply doing it in the chat window, but both give me the same message.

What is wrong? I am on Windows 10 edition, if it helps.

Try doing fireball instead of small fireball.

This is actually an unresolved bug, and you can't accomplish the task at hand. For some reason, the /summon command won't let you use small_fireball.
