camera automations not working

kammiz — Tue, 09 Sep 2025 11:16:42 GMT

Hi everyone, i have been using this routine for at least a year and after i HAD to change the wifi, the routine is not working anymore. The app works, the built in presence automation works, but if i script my own routine, the same as i have been using for a long while, it does not work. it seems it cannot find the device. Even though i specifically select it with the drop down when creating the routine. Is it a caching issue maybe? the device names are the same as before with the old wifi.

this is the routine:

metadata:
name: Camera automation
description: Turn on cameras when nobody is home and off when someone is home, plus on at night
automations:
- starters:
- type: home.state.HomePresence
state: homePresenceMode
is: AWAY
actions:
- type: device.command.OnOff
devices:
- Bakhage - Bakhage
- Gårdsplass 1 - Gårdsplass
- Gårdsplass 2 - Gårdsplass
- Hage - Hage
on: true
- starters:
- type: home.state.HomePresence
state: homePresenceMode
is: HOME
actions:
- type: device.command.OnOff
devices:
- Bakhage - Bakhage
- Gårdsplass 1 - Gårdsplass
- Gårdsplass 2 - Gårdsplass
- Hage - Hage
on: false
- starters:
- type: time.schedule
at: 22:00
condition:
type: home.state.HomePresence
state: homePresenceMode
is: HOME
actions:
- type: device.command.OnOff
devices:
- Bakhage - Bakhage
- Gårdsplass 1 - Gårdsplass
- Gårdsplass 2 - Gårdsplass
- Hage - Hage
on: true
- starters:
- type: time.schedule
at: 06:30
condition:
type: home.state.HomePresence
state: homePresenceMode
is: HOME
actions:
- type: device.command.OnOff
devices:
- Bakhage - Bakhage
- Gårdsplass 1 - Gårdsplass
- Gårdsplass 2 - Gårdsplass
- Hage - Hage
on: false

and this is the error in the log when i try to run it, seems like it cannot find the device:

Handlingen lyktes for [fant ikke enheten].

here is a google translation of the error in the log:

The action succeeded for [device not found].
