reset manual_control is never working because bug in condition value?

Description:

I cannot get reset manual_control to work, it’s not grabbing the code correctly it seems. Let me show you what I tried doing in the developer tool. I have multiple switches, but for this example I use switch.adaptive_lighting_bedroom with light.desk.

My automation is exactly the same as @basnijholt, except I notify another device of course. This is what I see in the developer tool:

light: {{ "light.desk" }}

{{ state_attr("switch.adaptive_lighting_bedroom", "manual_control") }}

{{ light in state_attr("switch.adaptive_lighting_bedroom", "manual_control") }}

{{ "light.desk" in state_attr("switch.adaptive_lighting_bedroom", "manual_control") }}

And this is the output:

light: light.desk

['light.desk']

False

True

What is happening here, I don’t really understand. My reasoning is correct right? But in any case, the automation is always failing on this condition in the action segment of the automation.

Edit: see fix in latest comment.

This was it @Chreece you’re the man! It seems that you need to be very nitpicky working with template coding… It worked immediately. Let me make a suggestion to @basnijholt to change his Readme.

Yes sorry, I didn’t see the declaration of the variables in your automation. Try the fix in my last post
