Is it possible to know when physical button is pressed?

That’s awesome @parautenbach love your work. I too did some anaylsis over the weekend to understand this a little more. Built some simple automations & scripts & otherwise did some testing to see what the state_changed events would look like in different circumstances. I came up with this simple table to at least show the various combinations of id’s that would or would not be recorded. [image] Cheers Nick
