Is homeassistant.homeAssistant.states["person.daniel_brunt"].state a message property or a string.
What happens if you use a debug set to JSONata and set it to

$globalContext(homeassistant.homeAssistant.states["person.daniel_brunt"].state)

, is it undefined or thdoes it throw an error

Thanks for opening my eyes to another use of the Debug node!
It should be a string! This works:
$globalContext('homeassistant.homeAssistant.states["person.daniel_brunt"].state')

Thanks!!
