Hey guys,
if I want to call a scene turn on service, I get alway an error and I don't know why.

tap_action:
action: call-service
service: scene.turn_on
target:
  entity_id: scene.diningroom_scene2

Error:

The scene works, if I call it over the developer setting.

you are using the incorrect syntax:

use:

  tap_action:
    action: call-service
    service: scene.turn_on
    data:
      entity_id: entity

if your button-card holds a scene as entity, or replace entity in the entity_id line with your actual scene entity_id

Thanks but the error is the same ;(

Please post full button-card yaml and format correctly using the code ticks

Hey,
here is the yaml:

type: custom:button-card
entity: scene.diningroom_scene1
name: Pandemonium
show_name: false
layout: name_state
tap_action:
  action: call-service
  service: scene.turn_on
  data:
    entity_id: scene.diningroom_scene1
styles:
  card:
    - background-image: url("/local/img/scene/scene1.png")
    - background-size: cover

just tested this:

type: custom:button-card
entity: scene.dining_table_gedimd
tap_action:
  action: call-service
  service: scene.turn_on
  data:
    entity_id: entity

and it works as expected.

are you sure your scene has the correct entity_id there?

fwiw, I also tested the HA syntax, which IS supported with the latest button-card version (sorry, it wasnt before)

type: custom:button-card
entity: sun.sun
name: scene concentreren
tap_action:
  action: call-service
  service: scene.turn_on
  data: {}
  target:
    entity_id: scene.dining_table_concentreren

and works perfectly.

I'm experience the same issue. The sceen is not activated
My yaml
`
type: custom:button-card
icon: mdi:lightbulb-outline
size: 30%
color: grey
show_entity_picture: true
name: Køkken 0
entity: input_number.koekken_scene
state:

• value: 0
  color: orange
  tap_action:
  action: call-service
  service: scene.turn_on
  data:
  entity_id: scene.kokken_0
  `
