Automation script not started

Configuration
1

Hello,
I declare a boolean in the configuration.yaml file:

input_boolean:
  start_light_show_1:
    name: light_show_1
    initial: on
    icon: mdi:stairs

As I understand, the variable name is: input_boolean.start_light_show_1. Is that true ?

In the front panel, I have:

- entity: input_boolean.start_light_show_1
        hold_action:
          action: toggle
        icon: mdi.stairs
        name: Light show_rainbow
        show_icon: true
        show_name: true
        tap_action:
          action: toggle
        type: entity-button

In the front panel I can see the activity of the button
In the logger I can’t see the activity on the same button, why ? I see only the start and stop of Hass.io

In the automation.yaml I have this sequence:

# déclencher le light show
- id: "Light show rainbow"
  alias: "Light show rainbow"
  trigger:
    -  platform: state
       entity_id: input_boolean.start_light_show_1
       to: 'on'
  action:
    - service: notify.pushbullet
      data:
        title: "Light show"
        message: "Rainbow1"
    - service: mqtt.publish
      data:
          topic: "cmnd/b0704d58c57d3b4bbacadaf645505c4/color"
          payload: "effect: rainbow1"

Any help will be welcome !
best regards and thank you very muche for your work !

If you turn the switch off and back on does the automation fire?

As for the log, you may need to turn on a higher log level to see the toggling.

logger:
  default: info
  logs:
    homeassistant.core: debug

Hello,
I modified the log entry but I don’t have more logs concerning my problem

journal
journal826×263 13.3 KB

but in the front panel I can see the activity switch:

frontPanel
frontPanel864×650 43.3 KB

If I fire the event in the developpement tool service, I dont have any log

My only comment here (within my comfort zone) is : -
If you need the boolean to go ‘on’ to fire the event why is it initialised as ‘on’ a default in the initial ?
Sorry, not much meat there I know

Sorry, I understand why I don’t have notifications: html 5 need a special setup. I declar pushbullet and it is a good solution for debugging.

So, I know the automation script is started, but no trace in logger… ? Why ? even in debug mode…

Best regards
