Help with household routine to keep Google Nest doorbells or cameras always on

I wanted to gin up a quick household automation to keep my Google Nest cameras on in case someone or an automation routine inadvertently turns a camera off.  Simple enough, start the automation on device.state.OnOff is false and run the action device.command.OnOff set to true to re-nable the camera.  According to the docs, Google Nest Cameras and Doorbells support the device.state.OnOff starter but I receive an error while editing the script for a Google Nest Doorbell (wired, gen 2).

Here is the simple script.

And here are the Google docs that state that the device.state.OnOff starter is supported.
