Hi Node-Red Pros :slight_smile: I´m trying to create a function node that makes use of a value coming from a global variable of my home assistant. This is what I receive when I copy the path from the corresponding global variable: homeAssistant.states["cover.esstisch_jalousie"].attributes.curren…

Alright, I tried it with several other entities of the homeAssistant and it never works.

So I guess the homeAssistant integration into Node-Red is just buggy.
