What is right to turn switches inside a group on?
switch.turn_on
or
homeassistant.turn_on
or even
light.turn_on
I had the problem that light inside a group turned on with switch.turn_off but not off so i aksed myself what is the right service?

I’m not sure which is the official correct way.
But currently this works for me:
action:
service: homeassistant.turn_on
entity_id: group.group_lights
homeassistant.turn_on/off works for mixed groups so its what I tend to use. I’ve not seen any negative effects using it even when you know switch or light will work.
strange homeasssistant.turn_off works with a switch group but homeassistant.turn_on seams not working…but switch.turn_on also not…strange.
Does it matter if in the group is only a single switch?
Edit: Ups my fault…looks i was sleepy last night.
