Can't purge history of entity

Hi everyone,

I seem unable to purge the history of any entity. I installed a few smart plug for energy measurement yesterday and had a few starting problems. Now I have a few hours with wrong values and I want to delete them. I read recorder purge entities and tried to run the service

service: recorder.purge_entities
data:
  keep_days: 0
target:
  entity_id:
    - sensor.kueche_kuehlschrank_stecker_aubess_tuya_power

but it doesn’t do anything. I do not see a log in MariaDB nor does the history disappear. Has anyone a idea what I am doing wrong?

I have the same problem. I call the service from the UI, the green checkmark appears but nothing else is happening. Entities remains the same.
Could anyone help us please?
