Clear_notification clears all HA android notifications

I have multiple automations that include sending notifications to my android phone, with the notifications including a couple of buttons for doing various things. The buttons are usually ‘do the thing now’ or ‘stop asking’.

These notifications are sent at various times while I’m at home. For when I’m out, they flip a boolean helper thats used by my ‘get home’ automation to send the same messages as I get home, so I end up with a to-do list of notifications.

This all works perfectly when I’m at home and they happen at different times, but when I arrive home and get multiple reminders at once then dismissing one of them dismisses them all.

1 original message:

    tag: FishFeeding
    sticky: "true"

2 original message:

data:
  title: It's bedtime
  message: It's {{ now().strftime('%H:%M') }}, get some sleep.
  data:
    ttl: 0
    priority: high
    notification_icon: mdi:bed-king-outline
    tag: Bedtime
    sticky: "true"
    actions:
      - action: DISMISS_ASKING
        title: Dismiss
      - action: START_BEDTIME
        title: Bed now
enabled: true
action: notify.mobile_app_pixel_8

2 Sent when I choose Dismiss:

data:
  data:
    ttl: 0
    priority: high
    tag: Bedtime
  title: Bedtime
  message: clear_notification
action: notify.mobile_app_pixel_8

Each notify.mobile_app_pixel_8 and its matching clear_notification have a matching tag:, and each pair have a different tag:.
Shouldn’t this mean that each clear_notification should only dismiss the matching notification?

Have I misunderstood how this should work, or used them incorrectly somehow?

Found the problem… that should have been obvious tbh.

The dismiss buttons on 2 different reminder notifications, handled by separate automations, were both action: DISMISS_ASKING.

That meant that when I pressed either dismiss button on the automations, the same thing went back to HA and the two separate automations both fired and cleared both automations.

Made the button actions unique (action: DISMISS_ASKING_BED and action: DISMISS_ASKING_FEEDING) and changed what each automation was listening for to match, and it’s working perfectly.
