Blueprint YAML code not showing while choosing 'Edit in YAML'

Hi, not sure if it’s normal but it wasn’t like that a few days ago (before one of the latest update I believe). Instead of seeing the Blueprint YAML file when selecting ‘Edit in YAML’, all I’m seeing is this:

It does that for all the Blueprints, including those that I’ve created myself. Same thing when looking at an Automation created by a Blueprint. All I’m seeing is this:

How do I turn it back so I can edit the Blueprint file?

Thanks.

That looks normal to me. If you want to edit a blueprint-derived automation or script beyond the inputs, you select “Take Control” from the breadcrumbs menu.

If you want it to stay a blueprint, though, you need to use a different editor. There is no UI Blueprint editor.

Take Control morphs it into an Automation (or Script or template)

If you’ve written your own Blueprint you should know how to do that with an editor.

I already did that. It does nothing. It doesn’t matter if I click on ‘Take Control’ while in the Blueprint’s Visual editor or the YAML editor. I still only just see that.

You need to add the inputs first.

I was able just a few days ago. I was working on a Blueprint. I even wrote earlier that I didn’t know I needed the Automation to be reloaded when a Blueprint was modified.

But I don’t want to modify the automation that the Blueprint creates, I want to modify the Blueprint itself.

Then I’m really confused. Maybe I was using the File Editor? I swear though I was within the YAML editor, it look is different. I must be tripping lol.

The only way to edit the blueprint itself, that I am aware of, is to do that is by editing it’s YAML file under the config/blueprint/ directory.

This gotta be how I did it using the File Editor. I swear though I was within the YAML editor, it look is different. I must be tripping lol.
