Input.select not appearing in Node Red

Hi

I’m trying to add some home modes using an input.select helper that I’ve created through HASS.

in Node Red, I want to use a service call to set the option of this to “Day”.

In the entity ID box, usually when I start typing it will bring up a list of suggestions. But even if I copy and paste the entity ID in it doesn’t appear, almost like it’s not being seen by Node red.

I’m pretty new to this so I’m not entirely sure of the terminology or what to search for. This is what I have:

The only reason the entity ID has that in at the moment is because I copied and pasted it from Lovelace.

I’m also not sure about the syntax for the Data so if anyone can fill that in as well I’d be grateful.

Restarted HASS and it didn’t do anything. Restarted just Node Red and it started picking them up. Can’t work out why restarting HAS wouldn’t have the same effect? Anyway, it’s working.
