Expected behavior

Rendering the given template without errors: {'template': '\ue59a{{state_attr("sun.sun", "next_setting")|as_timestamp|timestamp_custom("%H:%M")}}'} Rollback to 0.11.0 fixed the issue, so I should expect it is introduced by 0.12.0

Actual behavior

Rendering not working, see errorlog above

You can configure the following command in the appdaemon addon settings, until there is a fixed version of appdaemon released.

sed -i 's:"/api/template":f"{self.ha_url}/api/template":g' /usr/lib/python3.10/site-packages/appdaemon/plugins/hass/hassplugin.py

That is modifying signed sources and thus not recommend or supported. It may cause issues and even may cause HA to consider your whole system as unsuported dur to source modifications.

If this upstream bug causes an issue for your use case, please downgrade to the previous version using the backup that is created on upgrading the addon.
