Automations.yaml passed code validation but won't reload

Configuration
1

This is my automations.yaml file. It passes the internal validation (green check) and I ran it through an external yaml validitor and it passes. But when I try to reload the automations.yaml file it throws an error that is too generic to be helpful, what’s wrong with this code?

NB: I think most all of these are working and I have restarted HA. I’m running on Pi4.

Also, you will see I am using both life360 and internal HA for GEO, Im testing both for accuracy, so that’s an expected difference in the code.

Deeply appreciate any help. I can’t see where the error is that would cause HA to not be able to reload this.

EDIT: The error I receive is:

The following integrations and platforms could not be set up:

  • automation

Please check your config.

Post it anyway.

Added to post!

If you set the logging level to debug instead of info you may see more information.

Appreciate the help. That let me see that the error was with the event:leave mention in the close the garage. I removed it (I could have changed it to event_type, it seems) and that validated. Thank you for the help.

No problem. If you are using an SD card, remember to set the debug level back to info or warning.

Debug level is very chatty and may affect SD card life.
