Alarm alarm_arm_vacation

Configuration
1

I have just tested the manual integration, but unfortunately it is neither working to switch on vacation mode in UI card nor via service call. As I didn’t find an issue for that, I assume, that the problem is sitting in front of my keyboard.

service: alarm_control_panel.alarm_arm_vacation
target:
  entity_id: alarm_control_panel.home_alarm
data:
  code: '1234'

alarm_control_panel:
  - platform: manual
    name: Home Alarm
    code: "1234"
    arming_time: 30
    delay_time: 20
    trigger_time: 4
    disarmed:
      trigger_time: 0
    armed_home:
      arming_time: 0
      delay_time: 0

type: alarm-panel
states:
  - arm_home
  - arm_away
  - arm_vacation
entity: alarm_control_panel.home_alarm

Everything else is working, home, away, custom, night, but no vacation.

Where is my mistake?

“Manual” has no notion of vacation afaict

I have read this and didn’t find it there either.

BUT: It is in UI config. it is in UI, it is in services-list. alarm_control_panel.alarm_arm_vacation is there as the other ones. It is not a custom one from me.

My understanding is that the option of vacation mode was made available for HA so that alarm addons could use it but I believe the function / ability is not available in the standard manual alarm.

That would explain the service function being available but not actions if you only have the manual alarm.

Ah. o.k. Might be. What a pity.

It has already been implemented, it should be included in the next release of Home Assistant.
