Current State Node doesn´t see Entity ID

General

Hi

I´m having a problem with this Flow. It was working well in Home Assistant before the last update. Now it isn´t working properly.

This is my flow:

And this is how should work:

  • With a single click of Aqara switch the Bedroom Table toggle. This work ok
  • With a double click of Aqara Switch the flow should switch ON the bedroom and Sinfonier lights if Sinfonier light is ON, or switch OFF the bedroom and Sinfonier lights if Sinfonier light is OFF. This is not working

The problem that I see is that I´m not able to see the state of Sinfonier Light with the node "Current State", that node only see the state of Aqara Switch, Why?, it was working before.

This is the node Sinfonier state

The initial state was both lights ON, the expected behaviour should be switch OFF both lights, but is not happening because the node 4 doesn´t see the sinfonier light state

:frowning:

Your switch node looks for "OFF" (?), while the input is "off".
Case sensitive

Not really, the switch internal is this:

He always sees off because he is reading the aqara switch instead Sinfonier Light, I don´t know why.

It worked before the last update of the node-red addon

6

I opened a bug in Node-red add-on for Home Assistant because I think the Override Topic isn´t working in the Current State Node after last add-on update.

Let´s see what happens

@IsaTTeN do you have a link to that bug ? I feel I am having the exact same problem today on one of my new flow.
Thanks
