Multiple spaces in a string

Hello, I am trying to retain multiple spaces in a name, but it throws out all the extra spaces.

name: “Open/Close Sensors Sirens”

I want those spaces in between ‘sensors’ and ‘sirens’ for formatting purposes. Any way to retain the extra spaces?

edit: it seems to have cut off the extra spaces on here too. there should be 6 spaces in between the word Sensors and the word Sirens.

Maybe you could try unicode non-breaking spaces? I’ve no idea if HA will accept them, but might be worth a shot.

That worked!

I used “&#8239” to retain the spaces. thank you.
