Missing alarm_control_panel to arm Blink cameras

Before I called the service alarm_control_panel.alarm_arm_away in the GUI but now the service is missing. Am I missing something?

I called the service alarm_control_panel.alarm_arm_away with entity alarm_control_panel.blink_home to arm my cameras.

According to the Blink documentation this should work, and I have been using this automation before.

From the documentation:
“The alarm_control_panel.alarm_arm_away and alarm_control_panel.alarm_disarm services allow for the whole system to be armed and disarmed, respectively.”

Has the service alarm_control_panel.alarm_arm_away been changed recently?

I can access the entity to arm/disarm from Lovelace, but not in the automations.

Ahaa, now it’s solved.

The Blink integration crashed or something. 10 minutes after post this all entities had the state “Unavailable”. I assume this is why I was not able to call the service alarm_control_panel.alarm_arm_away correctly. Restarted Home Assistant and now it’s working again.
