Notify no longer interacting with device tracker.

[vaemarr]

I have an automation, it is split into 2x sub-routines (actions), that do the following:

First Action:

variables:
  target: |
    {% set x = trigger.to_state.attributes.source %} {{ states[x].object_id }}
alias: Sets the target of the notification to the person who triggered the event.

Second Action:

service: notify.mobile_app_{{ target }}
data:
  title: Shopping List
  message: >-
    {{ trigger.to_state.attributes.friendly_name }}, please review items that
    are needing purchase. Check them off when done.
  data:
    group: shopping-notification-group
    channel: Shopping
    notification_icon: mdi:cart
    color: "#A6FF96"
    clickAction: /lovelace-mushroom/house-mobile
    subtitle: Items are needed!
    car_ui: true
alias: Dispatch notification to person who entered Shopping Precinct

I am now, as of latest core update, getting the following. See attached.

I believe there were tracker changes in the latest update but as I am not a experienced coder I am uncertain if they are related.

Here are my details:

Core 2024.4.3 Supervisor 2024.04.0 Operating System 11.5 Frontend 20240404.2

There is not enough detail there to help me help you. You might want to provide the entire automation.

Even so, I'm not sure what this has to do with the composite tracker integration. Are the entities it creates behaving incorrectly somehow?

Sorry for delayed reply. Here is the full automation. I only raise it here because the error seems to be indicating its no longer recognising the composite tracker. The automation was working and then an update occured somewhere that has since caused this notice to appear. So just reaching out hoping you might notice something.

The automation you posted doesn't seem to match your original description (neither the automation's name, nor the entity IDs.) I can't guess what might be different.

Have you checked the automation's traces? Sorry, I can't help with this in this context. You should ask for help on the community forum or in discord.

Again, I don't see where this is indicating anything wrong with the composite integration.
