Automation formatting

1

What’s the difference between:

- platform: zone
  entity_id: device_tracker.b_iphone, device_tracker.r_iphone
  zone: zone.home
  event: leave

and this:

- platform: zone
  entity_id: device_tracker.b_iphone
  zone: zone.home
  event: leave
- platform: zone
  entity_id: device_tracker.r_iphone
  zone: zone.home
  event: leave

Are the two basically the same or is one an implied “and” condition, and the other an implied “or” condition? Can the former only be used in triggers, whereas the latter can be used for triggers and conditions?

functionally identical.
Both can only be used in triggers. This is not the proper syntax for conditions.

I know conditions have different formatting, but I meant more the combining of entities. But if this only works in triggers then it’s a moot point.

For Triggers, multiple Triggers are always an or condition.

For Conditions, the default for multiple Conditions is and.
